And then there's Andrew and Peter who are happy as long as we are moving on some sort of wheeled vehicle. We rented a bike trailer recently at the beach and the freedom of having them behind me with the wind in my hair not stuck behind a cumbersome double stroller was pure JOY!! RJ is a mountain biker/trail rider but he too loves the suburban wind in his hair and asphalt under his wheels with giggling riders in tow...
So when I saw the Madsen Cargo Bicycle I fell in love. Here it is:
I WANT this bike. I could come up with plenty of ways to say that I need it... but I really just want it. I have vintage aspirations of a smaller house older than 50 years, a cottage garden again, uneven wood floors again, paneled walls, ceilings that don't involve the word "popcorn" etc. Until I am able to see that dream realized... I can pretend I have a vintage life on this bike with giggling twins in tow, a princess in my sight and a bike riding phenom somewhere in the next cul-de-sac... If you visit the Madsen Cycles site from my blog, I will be entered to win. The contest ends July 15th. Thanks for the help!

You are too cute with your vintage dreams! But I know them well...selling our tiny 1940s MS cottage with a gorgeous backyard, beautiful rose gardens and PERFECT (but a little creaky in spots) hardwood floors was hard for me, no matter how much I wanted to leave that state again. I often wish we could have picked it up and brought it with us.
I checked out the site. Since the drawing is the 15th, does that mean that this may be transportation from the airport? :)
ohhh i love that bike!
That is a darling bike, Rebecca. It would be so perfect for the little boys! (and would look so right propped up near the front door...)
I clicked for you...good luck? How many of my little guys do you think I could stuff in that wagon? :)
