Save Some Oil !

NoMo......I took the seat off  my amazing Organic Engines Trike to get ready for cargo and light hauling!

I stopped by Union Sq yesterday for some carrot cake. This woman came over to ask about transporting children to school by bicycle.

Hope I made my point!

bicycle mobile charger

AMSTERDAM

AMSTERDAM (Reuters Life!) - Dutch cyclists chatting on the mobile phones are an ubiquitous site in the bike-friendly city of Amsterdam and soon they will be able to charge their mobiles with bike power.

Nokia Oyj introduced a bicycle charger on Thursday aimed at developing countries with limited access to electricity, but the cellphone maker said the idea could catch on in Europe where cycling for work, shopping and errands is a common lifestyle.
"We are targeting the initial rollout in the developing markets, but we do, of course, see the potential outside of these countries," said Nokia spokesman Leo McKay.
"In cities like Amsterdam for instance, where bicycles are probably the most common means of transportation, the supply of free, environmentally friendly power is pretty much limitless."
The charger will go on sale for about 15 euros later this year, Nokia said.

Bike Shop -Travoy Cargo Trailer By Burley!

 My good Friend Aimee has been using the Burley Travoy for a couple of weeks. It's not gonna be easy to get back!


Thank you so much for letting me try out your Travoy Cargo Trailer. 

 Going Shopping

 Tribeca NYC

I really don't want to give it back and would buy it any cost its that good.  I have been using it to visit my clients (I deep clean, reorganize) and I can fit everything I possibly need (including vacuum) in one of the various bags.  Also, I use it to buy groceries and it really does hold about 4 big bags of food.  Such a time saver as before I would make multiple trips on my bike but now I can do one stop shopping and simply unpack in the apartment (I love that you can use the kickstand for it to stand upright).  It fits easily in my closet and that is important as like most New Yorkers space is very much an issue.

 Curious Customer in Whole Foods

I also attach it to my bike even if I don't plan on getting anything because often its those random things I see that I covet the most.  Now I can stop and buy anything as I peddle around this great city of Manhattan.  People stop me all the time to ask about it and I show them how easy it is to attach/detach, how light, how little space it takes up and they are impressed.  It really sells itself.  Hoping I can borrow it this summer to take on a camping trip to Martha's Vineyard (to carry my tent, cloths all my supplies).  Thanks again for introducing me to this great product.
