This part of the post is an edit, an add-on, because I meant to–but forgot to–relate itContinue reading “Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#250)…with an edit.”

Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#249)…and a quick comment

A canvas book bag containing various items.Three liters of red wine.A cardboard box containing 3 pints of homemade dog food (chopped prime rib scraped from diners plates). I had a hot and bustling evening at work tonight and really looked forward to hopping on my bike afterwords. Before leaving work I checked the temperature andContinue reading “Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#249)…and a quick comment”

Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#247)…and a recipe

It’s the first time I actuallyContinue reading “Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#247)…and a recipe”

Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#246)

A partial set of ratchet wrenches (aka socket wrenches) that I recycled (salvaged) on my way to church this morning…and yes, I’ll even pick things out of people’s trash on my way to church (if it’s something really good).

Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#245)

Two plastic crates containing all the ingredients to make two batches of soup (except for the turkey broth, which I made from the turkey carcass leftover from Thanksgiving). The soups: Curried Vegetable (which is more like a ragout than a soup), and Split Pea with Linguica.  

Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#244)…and a few thoughts.

More than $100 in groceries from two separate stores in a Bike Rev trailer and a cardboard box on a front rack. First ThoughtIt was cold tonight…the first really cold night of the year, hovering around freezing. But in a month or so when it is really, really cold–when it hurts–I’ll be dreaming of aContinue reading “Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#244)…and a few thoughts.”

Thoughts on the New Bread Platform (or luggage carrier)

I’ve ridden the Mule with the new Bread Platform attached for the past week or so (not exclusively because I’m still riding the Mundo), and my overall impressions very favorable. It was very easy to install, it’s sturdy, and it is large…really large for a front rack. It measures 12 inches (30cm) by 17 inchesContinue reading “Thoughts on the New Bread Platform (or luggage carrier)”

Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#241)…and why my world is small.

Pots, pans, over-sized wire whisks, bowls, plastic buckets, and other small pieces of cooking equipment. (The above photo is one of a trilogy where I catered a party and carried most of the equipment to-and-fro on my bike. To see other photos click here and here.) I could answer the question–statement, I suppose–of why myContinue reading “Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#241)…and why my world is small.”

Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#234)…and a quick story

  $72.57 of groceries, sundries, and other staples in two plastic crates from three separate stores. The last of the three stores I went to was a national chain . I try not to shop at too many chain stores but actually like this one, not because of it’s convenience and prices (which are prettyContinue reading “Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#234)…and a quick story”
