@litchralee @FartsWithAnAccent sir you’ve described my garage almost perfectly 😀🚲🚲🚲🚲🚲🚲

@themeatbridge one of our bikes seats driver + 2 kids (long tail cargo). Doggo has a trailer, though if we’re riding as a family that’s usually towed by other bike. The kids like prefer the bike to the car, so I don’t have to make them do anything.

@themeatbridge @Swedneck most families will find it hard to do without a car, but then most families (at least where I live) have more than 1 car. Rather than being a luxury the 1 car + N e-bikes setup is cheaper and often more convenient for local trips, which tends to be quite a significant proportion. We access school, library, pool, shops, doctors, cinemas, our workplaces etc via e-bike. With kids. Sometimes in the rain. Sometimes with a dog.

@const_void the school traffic situation was the tipping point for getting a #cargobike for us. Much calmer and faster way to do it, with opportunity for spotting and chatting about stuff going on in the neighbourhood. There’s the occasional poor driver behaviour that affects us but it’s quite rare compared what you get in the car.
