Getting the cargo (e)bike religion in Ontario

Sat, 12/26/2020 - 2:31pm by herb

Even giraffes love cargo bikes (image courtesy of Curbside Cycles in Toronto).

"A new vehicle type has also emerged and is poised to enter the Ontario market - cargo e-bikes," says the Ministry of Transportation in Ontario, they mention in their recent call to the public to respond to changing e-bike regulations. It's too late to provide comments (sorry! I meant to post this earlier).

Utility, comfort and assist: name of the game at the Toronto Bike Show

bike show

Last weekend I made a trip down to the Toronto Bike Show. This bike show is more about people getting discounts on last year's models than about showing innovation in active transportation. Regardless, some innovation still shines through. I got to take a few crappy photos of these plus ride a handful.

Installing the canopy for our box bike

We recently bought an "e-bakfiets" and have been getting good use out of it. With fall weather it came time to assemble the Clarijs canopy we bought as an add-on. Clarijs is another Dutch company that makes various bike products. I decided to document the process since it's a bit involved in the current instructions leave something to be desired. I got some help from this article by Bicycle Belle out of Boston.
