All it really accomplishes is aggressively increasing the chances that you kill yourself or someone else outside your vehicle. It's a mathematically flawed, entirely selfish risk. 1014748

Jamie Lang @jamielang.bsky.social · 12/02/202510 watermelon, 8kg of bananas, 6 broccoli, half a cabbage and 3 trays of eggs all on sale at local vege stores and easily fit on my cargo bike. I’ll admit, keeping the watermelon and eggs separate was tricky but I kept them all intact. #carryshitolympics #cargobike #chch #shoplocal #shopbybike 0131

Jamie Lang @jamielang.bsky.social · 03/02/2025I think everyone should have the opportunity to grocery shop on a bike. I swung by 3 shops, smiled at a few people, rode through a park and under some trees and parking was really easy. Biking for everyday errands feels more like an adventure than a chore. #christchurch #cargobike #groceryrun 1607

Jamie Lang @jamielang.bsky.social · 10/01/2025‘But I need a car because it’s school holidays and I have shopping to do’. What we need are walkable communities. The only difficulty about my outing today was navigating the lack of bike lanes that go to places you actually need to go to. #Otautahi #Christchurch #carryshitolympics 3224
Jamie Lang @jamielang.bsky.social · 05/01/2025So much is possible whilst taking up so little space. Found a great deal on bananas too good to pass by. These bikes make quick, spontaneous shopping so easy. #cargobike #carryshitolympics #waroncars 4679
