Hi all!

Welcome to Cargo Bike Life. I'm Arleigh aka Bike Shop Girl. I started my cargo bike life pre-kids with an Xtracycle Freeradical kit, then added a Bullitt to my fleet when we had our first kid in 2015. Since, I've opened a cargo bike shop, worked for Tern Bikes, and now work on growing the cargo bike movement with this site!

My main cargo bikes are an Urban Arrow, a Tern GSD, and a Tern HSD, but I have various review bikes coming through.

Thanks so much for getting this started. I've often longed for an online community of transportation riders.

Thanks for opening this international cargobike-forum! Maybe I can now find cargo bikers from countries other than Germany and make international contacts.
