When people are like “every bike is a cargo bike”, I’m like “can you carry a dog on it?”

A bike company in Wisconsin almost produced a light utility cargo bike using this exact model as the base…they shit canned the project which turned out to be one of several shortsighted decisions. RIP #bratcakes

Nobody knows how much we owe to #LivableLyndale people who spent years clawing and scratching. It's easy to take infrastructure for granted. When things work well, you assume it got built that way because it just made sense. But it's often the case people had to fight for it.
BWCAW fires could "burn until it snows" according to a forest ecologist at the U of M. MnDOT and MPCA are asking people to reduce car trips to avoid further toxifying the air we all breathe. eBikes and eCargo bikes help replace those car trips. We need annual state funding for eBike rebates.
Laura G Mitchell@lauragmitchell.com · 3w agoSummer camp drop off when the AQI is in the 300s. I didn’t want the kids (my 7yo & our neighbor kid) to have to exert themselves much on the walk to school, so I put them in our cargo bike instead. I generously used the e assist to avoid exerting myself.
Hey @richardcarlbom.bsky.social and @dfl.org! I’m noticing your silence on this. Are you going to condemn these attacks on Senator Fateh? Let me be very clear, calling Senator Fateh’s positions “extreme” is Islamophobia. Failing to address the rhetoric from this PAC is very telling.

Need to haul a saxophonist playing live music through your city? There’s a cargo bike for that. 🚲 ❤️ 🎷
I love seeing all these cargo bike reviews coming out. If you’re reading these with the intent to buy a cargo bike someday, remember one thing: opinions are like assholes, everyone’s got one. Try lots of different cargo bikes and make up your own mind.

Going Statewide With The Minnesota Cargo Bike Library!: https://streets.mn/2026/07/06/going-statewide-with-the-minnesota-cargo-bike-library/ Now known as the Minnesota Cargo Bike Library, let's check in with Laura Mitchell about what's new this year!
Only one front loader recommended?? Potentially controversial statement here but front loader (aka bakfiets) style cargo bikes are easily the best way to carry people and/or stuff; better hauling capacity, more stable, more utilitarian…this is a very limited cargo bike review IMHO.
NYT Wirecutter@nytwirecutter.bsky.social · last mo.An electric cargo bike can get you, your kids, and your stuff from A to Z. We have recommendations for frontloaders, longtails, and budget bikes.
The economy sucks because the wealthy and corporations have rigged it to make themselves richer. The wealthy and corporations are richer because the economy sucks. The only way we're going to start getting out of this mess is by taxing the rich and ending Citizens United.
We’re seeing similar results at the @mcbl.bike Reducing car dependency (including EVs) has massive economic, environmental and public health benefits. It’s time for Minnesota to commit annual funding to an income qualified ebike rebate lottery program. www.leeds.ac.uk/research-32/...
Trial shows e-cargo bikes can replace cars
A major trial of e-cargo bikes which saw dozens of families use them for shopping, leisure and commuting shows they have the potential to reduce car use and improve health, say researchers.
