The problems I face in Logan, Utah at this time of year tend to revolve around snow removal and idling vehicles. A walk to the store will probably involve at least one resident who thinks that the sidewalk is a good place to throw the snow as they clear their driveway. And after making the way clear for their Lincoln Navigator, they often leave it in the fire lane at a local shopping center while they run in for a few things. Sometimes I find it hard to maintain my normal buoyant and upbeat attitude. Then life sends you a video like the one below and you can't help but laugh as you realize others are suffering too.
I guess Misery really does love company.

Complaints about man-powered cargo bikes does seem less maddening that idling family-size SUVs. I'm 1/4 Dutch. Perhaps when I have children I shall invest in a cargo bike too...
That's so refreshing, to hear people complaining about bicycles that are too big. What would these folks think if they could see the gigantomobiles we have here idling at every traffic light, much less at the post office and the grocery store.
Glad you both enjoyed the video. I really admire these cargo bikes and would love to ride one but the terrain in Logan, UT doesn't make it very practical. There are some sources now for Dutch bikes in the States and if I ever wind up living in place that's a least a little flatter, I may ride one yet.
