Ok, I can’t believe we don’t have a current bike thread going… so instead of the commuting version I’m sharing my errands by bike badassity!
Edit: ok I missed the new bike commuting thread, but I think this is different enough!
I um signed the kids up for way to many activities this spring… but I did make sure they were close enough to bike to :D
So here’s our weekly biking errands:
Preschool
Guides
Soccer (including coaching gear, balls/cones/clipboard)
Tennis lessons
We are pretty much guaranteed a bike each day m-f, and have a weekly mileage of 50km (~30Miles) Woot!
Note we did buy an ecargo bike when we dropped down to one car… but I mean a 500Wh battery charge (~12cents) gets us 70km alone, or 35km loaded with kids/groceries.
Today DS and I biked for a buttload bike load of groceries (a cargo bike full and enough for a weeks worth of groceries - although my kids aren’t teens yet…)
Since my bike commute has kind of permanently been put on hold because of work-from-home arrangements/career changes I’ve mostly switched to biking for errands. I struggle to bike *just* for fun, I always want a destination, although ice cream, growler fills work well for incentives.
What’s everyone else getting by bike these days?
