New Paradigm

I'm surprised I haven't seen this around here before...

Yesterday I stopped at the market on my way home for the purpose of buying some milk. I was not riding but rather combining trips. Anyway, when I walked out, I saw a bike in the rack with an Xtracycle conversion kit! The cargo bike revolution has come to town... maybe.

I'm sorely tempted to buy a long bike, like a Kona Ute or a Surly Big Dummy, but I still haven't solved the home-storage issue. I'll have to give it some thought. I also just got my car tax bill from the city... yet another encouragement to find another way.

Here's the Xiougeonz official nudge: when the storage issue becomes a problem to be solved instead of an excuse for not doing it, you'll figure it out and get the Xtracycle (or figure out something else to meet the "other way" goal).
Think vertically :-)
