So, in a fit of “this-seems-like-a-great-idea-for-the-family” I built up a Surly Big Dummy longtail bike as the NYC version of the family truckster. Thus far I have hauled:
3.5 cases of beer and a 10lb bag of catfood.
full frame box and my son’s push-bike.
my wife and son.
my Hollands’ light touring bike and 30lbs of bike parts.
This should be a hell of a lot of fun.
