Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#229)…and how I lost my squeak

$100.24 of groceries in a BicycleR Evolution trailer.

Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#228)…and a comment

One was that I deliver also (my own pizza, that is), but it also reminded me of a pizzeria I saw when I was in Boston on holidayContinue reading “Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#228)…and a comment”

Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#224, #225, #226)…and a healthy bread recipe made with 100% whole wheat flour

  #224 (top photo)…Another bike. I was doing work on my winter bike (the Mule) and was having difficulty removing the crank and bottom bracket.

I could have, ofContinue reading “Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#224, #225, #226)…and a healthy bread recipe made with 100% whole wheat flour”

Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#220)…with a few comments

$103.84 of groceries from two separate stores in two plastic soda crates. I had a crazy-busy and super stressful day at work today and really wanted to go for a steam and a quick power swim at the JCC but to my dismay I discovered that the center closed at 6pm for the holiday (itContinue reading “Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#220)…with a few comments”

On my way toContinue reading “Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#215 & 216)…and a few comments regarding the seemingly never-ending adventure of carrying stuff on a bike.”

Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (A Best Of)
