I’m lucky enough to be able to reach the grocery store by simply walking. But still, grocery bags are heavy and I used to use my car when I had to buy more groceries than usual. But then I figured, why not use my bike instead?
Today I did for the first time and oh boy, it was so funny. Also it felt so *right* and so efficient. Moving 1 ton of steel only to carry less than 10 Kg of groceries is fucking dumb. There is no excuse.

Using a bike like a Dutch person.
This is the way!
Now, get some fenders too, and you can do grocery runs year round, even with heavy rain. And don’t forget headlight, taillight.
