It won't work for everyone, but it might work for you. It might not work every day, but it could work some days, saving you money on gas and car maintenance, and helping you stay in shape.<br /><br />A rack and some bags will make your bike a better load-hauler. You don't have to spend a lot of money on a sturdy rack (about $30-40) and some panniers that hang off the sides of it ($35 and UP). You might find cheaper racks, but they won't hold up well.<br /><br />Try to think of how many places you could go by bike. It's a different way to see the familiar countryside or explore roads you haven't seen.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3824868580349825218-115040948895015793?l=gmrollers.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>cafiendnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3824868580349825218.post-72189811739672687212008-05-03T13:07:00.000-07:002008-05-09T15:07:58.811-07:00We are a community of families who want to ride bicycles safely for exercise and health.
