Loaded up for a trip to the swimming pool. It looks peculiar, but it's very easy to ride and the upright position makes you feel really rather stately.

I thought the cargo bit was in between the seat/bars and the front wheel on these for some reason...

No, you're thinking of a Long John, I think. The 8 Freight really is nice to ride, no different to a normal bike - unlike some front cargo bikes which are a bit twitchy until you are used to them.

I was amazed at just how easy it was. When I collected it, I had a ride up and down the road outside Mike Burrows' workshop and came back giggling like a little girl. Burrows joined in. "Great, isn't it?", he asked and I replied "Fantastic!"
