Veggie Day

I participate in a CSA (community-supported agriculture) program, which means that I pay for a farm share at the beginning of the year and then get a box of whatever's in season, each week. Well, every other week because I share my share with a neighbor. The pick-up location used to be right around the corner from me. But it's about 2 or 3 miles from where I live now. That means veggies need to be transported! Last year I used a car. This year, I thought I could do better.

  1. Nice! I'm still working on the cargo hauling potential of my commuter bike.

  2. I love the baskets, but other people prefer bags... whatever you get, make sure it is sturdy enough!

  3. you've got a nearly ideal cargo-hauling setup, there, step-through!.

    do the fold-up walds rattle when folded up? i'm debating getting them for one of my bikes. i used to have a set of dutch grocery panniers, but found them heavy. i imagine the walds to be lighter.

  4. I love my baskets! I might see if I can fit a deeper front basket at some point. I haven't really noticed any rattling from the folding basekets. Of course, my bike has lots of noisy parts - the saddle creaks, my purse strap clanks against things... The only time there seems to be any noticeable noise from them is if they are open but empty. Which they shouldn't ever be. Theoretically.
