We hop in the car to get groceries or drop kids at school. But while the car is convenient, these short trips add up in terms of emissions, pollution and petrol cost.

    We have a cargo bike that’s electric assist. You’re underselling how much kids love it. They go mad. We do school runs in it and kids always want to go for rides.

      Our kids love it too except 80% of the year it is 38-48 F and raining. Which is pretty miserable on our school runs. And the kids keep fighting me on their rain gear.
