Car Free family of 6 in Edmonton Canada

[MommyPedals]

Hi All! My family has 2 cargobikes- a Bunch trike and an Urban Arrow and 4 kids age 2 to 12. We live in the suburbs of a winter city and did about 8300km by bike last year.

I love talking about winter cycling, going car lite or carfree and how to get kids to all the places they need to go in a car centric city.

Wow! Great setups.

Do all 4 kids fit in the bunch? I have 3 (2, 7, 9) and they are getting cramped in the UA

They do, although its cramped now. The 3 big kids all easily fit in the Bunch still. It helps that for short trips they can bike themselves, and most longer trips I'm not taking all 4 by myself and we can do 2 per bike. Or I pull out the Wike trailer which hauls 125lbs and people up to 5'4".

So we make it work. Starting to think about an ebike for the older ones now so they can keep up on car replacement trips. Looking at a Tern HSD or quick haul, but that might still be a couple years off.

Wow, way to go! Love your set up. UA with a trailer is awesome.
