We are really considering one and living in Northern germany makes it easy to hop over there for the Seminar. We are looking for one that has a small kids seat in the back. I, too, never drove/rode one, so I’m stoked to hop in one. I see a husband an wife ride two every morning as I’m on the way to my daughters kindergarten on our cargo bike. I zip along quite well and they pass me like I’m standing still. I see their parking spot in the city and it is at least a 15kilometer hike for them every day. Impressive. The main reason we want it is to stay out of the elements, as it rains A LOT here.
On another note. My prototype cargo bike is nearly complete. I promise to send the pictures and build report soon.
