I didn't remember writing the "painted into a corner" part until you mentioned it and the feelings of that post came flooding back to me and I realized how much progress I've made. It was shocking to be honest, because I remember feeling really stressed at that time and very down about the road blocks that seemed to never end.<br />It would be awesome to meet another cargo bicyclist! We have started a local cargo bike club on Facebook if you want to join too! <br />Thanks for writing, keep in touch!

Just found your wonderful ramblings this evening (staying up too late reading and catching up too).<br /><br />So great to see you making progress from not too long ago wondering whether you'd "painted yourself into a corner" when the Yuba was finally home.<br /><br />I'm not too far away, up in Richland, so I'm right with ya on any of your weather comments. Though I do hope that you get less wind than we do. I have an Xtracycle setup on a RANS crankforward bike. (among many others in the garage) Absolutely love it, its great fun, hauls most anything (though it gets a bit wiggly with heavy loads). However, with the bolt-upright seating, going into headwinds is definitely not fun. <br /><br />I don't get down that way very often, but would like to meet up when I do.<br /><br />-- IahZyzzyxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08328089587863350932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7118856110075405434.post-3166124561698177222012-03-12T16:54:53.397-07:002012-03-12T16:54:53.397-07:00Every hard thing becomes easier the next time!!

I do like the idea of riding more to the middle of the road in that situation too. Thanks for your ideas and comment!<br /><br />LindsayLindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16690091554153831460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7118856110075405434.post-52971196951362633442012-03-11T20:27:26.908-07:002012-03-11T20:27:26.908-07:00Fully Lugged- EXACTLY! lol I got water and three i...Fully Lugged- EXACTLY! lol I got water and three ibuprofen and sat down for an hour!

In such a circumstance I would recommend Taking the lane and riding in the left third of the lane to make yourself more visible and give yourself a good buffer zone. <br /><br />In Bethlehem PA where I live the city has begun replacing angel in parking with back in angel in parking this is so much better for cyclists because when the cars back in the drivers side window has an unobstructed view of the oncoming traffic lane. <br /><br />I would not recommend riding on the sidewalk as It is very dangerous (and usually illegal in commercial districts though rarely enforced) every drive way is an intersection and pedestrians are not always very predictable. If you do not feel safe on a section of roadway I would suggest to use the sidewalk but you would be safer walking the bike rather then riding.<br /><br />If you have not already I would suggest taking the league of american bicyclists traffic skills 101 class you can search for classes and league certified cycling instructors near you on the leagues website.Joshuahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10314440486435517162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7118856110075405434.post-27352865349546309342012-03-11T18:44:25.528-07:002012-03-11T18:44:25.528-07:00"When I first got home I was so sore I just s..."When I first got home I was so sore I just sat on the sofa"<br /><br />Advil is your friend :) Great progress.
