So the last post about the pedal hopper made me think a bit. What other kinds of work bikes are out there. So I did a little digging. Below are a few images (and links) of what would be neat to start seeing around town.
So how cool would it be to go to the farmer’s market and see one of these:
It can haul 450 lbs and from the site they call it “A modern vending tricycle that unfolds into a shop or display system. Beautiful construction and top componentry. Easy to ride and great looking. Set up your shop practically anywhere!”
So we have a new member of our home. He’s 5 months old and eventually we want to be able to take him on bike rides. I have seen the child seats you can tow behind a bike but then I saw this. How much fun would that be?
My only drawback is that we’ll need to start looking for a house in Old West Lawrence, because where we live now I don’t think I can pedal it up the hill to our house!
Here’s the other drawback – they are made overseas.. But as gas prices continue to rise and as Lawrence continues to develop the downtown perhaps we might see more and more neat looking bikes like this cruising around town.
