Cargo Bike?

If the cargo is the right shape.


Today I ran an errand that required a little thought and a couple of bungie cords.

My daughter's high school soccer team raises money through sponsorships and my job was to install the sponsor's banner.

I've got a big pannier, but it isn't that big. I've got a rack on the back, but it isn't an extended-frame Xtra Cycle. Fortunately, the load was narrow enough to fit along the top tube without messing up my pedal stroke too bad. My knee would have probably had a hard time if this had been a long distance or if there were any uphills (some destinations are downhill all the way, and this is one of them).

Delivering this by bike was perfect.

More bike connections:

• The sponsor and Osteria/Doc Chey's owner Rich Chey rides with us on Sunday mornings.
  
• The sponsor and Atkins Park owner Warren Bruno rides with us on Sunday mornings and leads us on the Atkins Park Santa Ride.
  
• Should have gotten a picture, but it looked like several students rode their bikes to school today.
  
• Met a neighbor Tom out on a ride (he's retired) and he may join us Sunday mornings.
