NEW BIKE DAY!!!
The car seat fits perfectly with room for the toddler. I biked with it empty, might try it with the kiddos next. I definitely am glad we got the e-assist hah. This thing is a tank. I could barely bike it around on flat ground. And when they’re older we can “bike pool” with two other kids! :)
That thing is cool. What's the weight capacity of the bucket?
Absurd. 271kg (approx. 600lb). Even with the assist I don’t know that *I* could pedal that much haha. From another owner, I’ve heard the only way to approach that is to haul mulch or sand home from the hardware store.
But I did bring it home today with lots of groceries. Including bubble water cans, a gallon of milk, several pounds of onions and potatoes, several pounds of beans, and a ton of other stuff.
Alas, neither DH nor I will get a chance to bike commute this week. Due to the current Covid situation in our area, DHs work is strictly WFH for an indeterminate time, unless one needs to go into the clean room. And DS1’s daycare is closed for at least the next week, as one of the teachers tested positive for Covid yesterday. They are all vaccinated so hopefully it should go as smoothly as possible for them. But it’s still no fun, and we will have to do yet another week of working and managing two children at home. I was looking forward to getting DS1 out of the house and having a bit of breathing room. And biking to and from daycare. But I get it. Im not blaming daycare. I’m just… shouting into the void that the situation is what it is. If the weather is nice maybe I’ll take some time to bike around the park at least so we get outside.
Since this is the new year, and I was out of commission due to pregnancy/having a baby for a bit, I’m going to start my challenge counter now. So I am 1 for 1 on biking for trips (grocery store)! I think we need to make a target trip soon for a handful of things (batteries and some medicine for myself and the babe), so I’ll try to do that via bike too.
