Sold the car o{}o

It's worth checking the spec though, the original Xtracycle will take 3 25kg sacks (of sand, cement etc), one in each side pocket - if you can pedal such a weight. I've regularly brought 2 at a time back from Wickes on it. The 'open' design of the side pockets means you can strap virtually anything in, bags of soil, rubble, whatever. It's a lot more than a glorified shopping trolley.

We have two in the fleet if you are anywhere near York. The concept seems to have evolved, quite a few companies are making one piece framed versions rather than bolt on kits. Like this;

You know some times you see something and think "I REALLY want that?...." (OK, some may consider me sick and twisted)

Might have to make do with getting another trailer (first)

As nice as those look, I think I prefer the Burrows 8-Freight. It's quite a bit more expensive, but it's also a better quality bike.

€800 makes that one too expensive for my pocket right now

I don't have a car now. Sold my small van 2 years ago as I wasn't using it. Sold the motorbike for the same reason. Now it's just my bikes, the bus and the train. We have a car club available where I live so would use that if needed but haven't so far. Supermarket is 30 yards away which is fantastic....so no need to have a car for shopping.
