Come test ride a Cargo bike!

This event is for the bike-curious who are interested in test riding a cargo bike. This includes parents who are thinking about riding with their kids and might benefit from test riding other parents’ kid friendly rigs. Christopher M. Craig, Nanci Vessels Mackey and I will be there with electric and non-electric assist bikes to for you to try, including a CETMA Largo, Bullit, Yuba Mundo, Yuba Spicy Curry and various combinations of commuter bikes and kid seats. This event happening as part of the Asheville Cargo Bike Gang, the Facebook group.

It will be fun, casual, and family friendly and this is not a sales event! We simply want to spread the word about how fun biking on a cargo bike can be – kids or no kids! The location is the blank lot on the corner of N Liberty and Hillside.

Don’t miss out– you can’t test ride bikes like these anywhere else in Asheville.

And If you think your kids are too heavy to ride around town, come check out what we’ve learned about electric assist.
