In the weeks (and lets be real, months) that follow I will still be posting some of my usual content. I’ve got reviews of the Urban Arrow and Hamax Caress I want to get out. We just got a new bike for Little T that I plan to review at some point. The Packster recently…… Continue reading Pandemic chronicles: The first month
We sold our Load 60 this week. With the third kid joining our family earlier this year it wasn’t quite the right bike for us anymore, even though we did still use it a fair bit. We aren’t buying another cargo bike to replace it right away. It’s not in the cards right now financially…… Continue reading Goodbye Bike Day and some thoughts on longevity of electric bikes
Even people who have never considered buying the family and cargo bikes I mostly talk about here are familiar with the idea of a child seat that sits on the back of the bike and allows you to carry a young kid with you on a standard bike (or provides support for young kids on…… Continue reading Qibbel Junior vs Yepp Junior EasyFit
This post is going to talk a lot about breastfeeding, pumping, and specifics about my breast/nipples/nursing+pumping situation. It’s rather personal territory, and less bike related, than most of what I talk about here but I think it’s important and I’m excited about having had the chance to try this product. More than most of my…… Continue reading Adventures in bike and transit commuting: breast pumping edition (A review of the Willow breast pump)
I’ve never been a particularly frequent blog poster but you may have noticed even fewer posts recently from me. Those who follow me on Twitter or know me in person will know that that’s because our family recently grew by 1 tiny human. Baby J joined our family at the end of May. When…… Continue reading A new addition: Pregnancy, newborns, and 3 kids on a bike
Since I brought home my Tern GSD S10 last July I’ve logged over 3500 miles on it as my primary commuter bike. My typical commute is rather different from the average. I have a little over 5 miles on the shoulder of a relatively rural highway that involves very little stopping and either a steep…… Continue reading Tern GSD S10 vs S00 showdown
One of the reasons I switched from the BodaBoda to a box bike was because I found it difficult to manage getting around by bike in the rain with kids on the back of a rear-carry cargo bike. Unlike box bikes, which typically have rain canopies available (and if one doesn’t already exist for your…… Continue reading Maruto Child Seat Rain Cover review
As soon as we found out our offer had been accepted on the house in Vashon I realized that the Packster wasn’t going to work for commuting due to the limitations of the water taxi (I had been using it even on days I wasn’t transporting kids as a part of my commute because it…… Continue reading New bike day (with the Tern GSD)
A while back when I was putting together my first look at the Tern GSD I went to G&O and measured a whole bunch of cargo bikes. Shortly thereafter I started getting requests for that information so I put it into a Google doc so that it could be edited by other people and accessed…… Continue reading Cargo bike measurements
Inspired by my friend Lindsey over at LindseyBikes I thought I would go ahead and delve into this topic while I’m stuck in the middle of it. There will be a lot of bodily fluid/anatomy discussion in this post because thats what real life with a period is. Even if you don’t have a period…… Continue reading Biking while female: period products
