A Summer Ride

A Summer Ride May 15, 2014

I has been over 10 years since I owned a bike.  We are about to make a serious upgrade.

 

I don’t enjoy spending time in the car, but that is tricky with four kids to transport.  We are fortunate to have many of our destinations within close proximity in our neighborhood.  Still, little legs can still only walk so far and even if I have the energy to walk, I can only fit so many kids in our double stroller.  Enter the Yuba Mundo bike.  This cargo bike is awesome.

 

I met the Mundo through my husband and our local bike shop.  I was inspired and convinced by this family of six.

As you can see from the picture, we are about to put me and FOUR kids on ONE BIKE!  I can’t wait.  I will probably look crazy and be the subject of much ridicule.  But, it will be worth it to enjoy a summer mostly sans carseats.  I’ll give the update once we’ve tried it ourselves next week!

 

I am always up for hearing the ways that other, larger families get around the town without a car.  If you have a favorite method, feel free to lay it on me.
