It was meant to be a quiet Sunday spent puttering about the house; ah, the best laid plans.As I was cleaning and greasing the Trail-A-Bike, in preperation for our train adventure, the axel started malfunctioning, which nessesitated packing it up and running it over to the bike co-op in the Xtracycle. It's a 6 mile trip to the bike shop, past the library, the food co-operative, various other shops. SO, having gone all that way, the return trip became a gauntlet of errands, some done largely to get out of the rain showers that were passing through.
By the time I got home I had stoped at the library and the video rental place, picked up groceries and done some holiday shopping.
So much for putting my feet up and having a restful day. Here is a shot of my trusty steed at one of the stops. Yup, that IS a bike box stapped to the Xtracycle, I picked it up at the co-op for shippin the bike on Amtrak. God I love my Wide Loaders

I really should start saving my pennies for an Xtracycle. You've done a great job of demonstrating what can be hauled.
I got really lucky, in that I was able to find one used. I have to say, now that I have it, I dont know how I got long without one all this time! They are well worth every penny
