I too am dubious of the trailers if they're on-road as they're low-down and not terribly visible. I have visions of cycling baby through country trails... Sigh.
The under handlebar baby carriers are called Bo bike carriers and I think they're FAB.

Ooh...I saw a lady with a Trikidoo down my road a couple of months ago. Very, very stylish...and I believe hers had an electric motor...just in case, you know.
ReplyDeleteAnd I believe a Trikidoo or similar 'cargo' bike will last you many years until Eenie is old enough to ride his/her own bike.
Also...you'd have enough space to carry child and do weekly grocery shop/any shopping on it. Brilliant!
Hope you and Mr Weenie can come to some sort of agreement, i.e. you get your own way.
:)
All valid reasons! Main issue is cost really. Cargo bikes are hideously expensive, perhaps because they're so fantastic.
ReplyDeleteOh My Gosh I *love* the Trikidoo! I've never seen them before but they are gorgeous (plus it says on the website that Helena B-C has one and I love her too). The only problem (apart from cost) is storing it somewhere I guess.
