The bike trailer is a good idea. I live as close to a store as gerv and have tried the small cart idea and it works but the trailer is faster and holds more. The other thing is the trailer is covered and your groceries don’t get wet if you put the top up. Lots of things don’t like getting wet when you go shopping. Flour and Sugar sacks aren’t water proof nor is salt. But for me the trailer works because I don’t like shopping so I try to only go once every two weeks if I can.

I lived in Bellevue so I thought everyone was used to going out and getting wet. What does the Seattle T-Shirt say, “This isn’t a tan it is rust.”
