It’s finally time! I’m buying an Urban Arrow. I’m just trying to figure out if the upgrade to the FamilyNext is worth it. I plan to ride it on gravel paths often & I live in the mountains. However, my primary use will be for a 3-mile pothole daycare loop. I need help fellow #cargobike people 😭

I’m a cold cargo bike mom for Halloween this year (don’t worry, she was bundled up and toasty warm!)

The happiest little hiker! We had to turn back due to an incoming snowstorm but she did fantastic. Turns out all that Outdoor Boys has sunk in!

Wishing I was riding in the beautiful autumn weather instead of pounding my head against poor IT infrastructure.

In honor of the current viral video game mom, here is me doing VoG in Destiny 2 with my sleeping 9 day old baby. Cuddles during sleep cycles and enjoying a favorite hobby really helped me stay sane.

It took me a minute to realize the reason this little alleyway winery was so delightful is because it’s completely insulated from all of the chaos that is downtown Denver traffic.

The 4 stages of #bicycle consciousness:
1. Bikes are obstacles (outright bans)
2. Bikes are toys (OK, your kids can ride around their subdivision)
3. Bikes are exercise (paths in parks that you drive to)
4. Bikes are transportation (you can mostly get from A to B without risking death)

Inadequate bike infrastructure is a major contributor to cyclist casualties in the US, but the attitudes of US drivers are also a huge factor. They view cyclists not as fellow commuters but as obstacles that don’t belong there, and they assume anyone biking instead of driving is being a contrarian.

Nothing like waking up to your two year old inches from your face whispering “mommy, poopoo in diaper”

Would I be insane to swap my long term corporate position for an ai product or engineering role at a startup? Because I’m getting real over my current employer 🙃

Even though the front of this ice cream place is a car-centric hellscape the back way is a fun ride almost exactly a mile from our front door. There is no bike parking 🙃

We spend so much more time together as a family now that we’ve embraced bicycles. My little cargo e-bike (radrunner 2!) makes it all feel approachable and lighthearted. It’s a real boon here in Colorado where we’ve got tons of hills and even more exceptionally fit, serious athletes.

The days are still hot, but the morning sun rides are getting a bit crisp. This worked surprisingly well.

I’m 90% certain I’m going to purchase an Urban Arrow FamilyNext this fall. I want to test ride other front loaders though, which likely means a trip to Boulder & Front Range Cargo Bikes 🎉

My mother and aunt are visiting Amsterdam and she won’t stop sending photos of their beautiful infrastructure and all the bakfiets she comes across. Anyone there hiring for UX or Linguistic Modeling? 😭

There’s no such thing as bad weather, just bad gear! We had a rare but fun rainy bike ride to daycare this morning

If your grocery route is better than this I’d love to see it. (No, really. I am obsessed with mine and want to see how lovely other peoples’ cycling experiences are!)

"Over 40,000 people die in car crashes in the US every year...neighborhoods are carved up by high-speed traffic. Kids can’t walk to school safely. But someone saw a teenager run a stop sign on an e-bike, so the real crisis must be those darn batteries on two wheels."

If you think electric bikes are bad, there’s a much bigger menace hitting our roads
Electric bikes are a menace. They go almost as fast as a car (if the car is parking), they’re whisper...

I can’t imagine our family without this bike now. Game changer is an understatement.
