How to handle cargo on your bike

Submitted by Brent Hugh on Wed, 10/05/2011 - 4:02pm

Forrest Ohnesorge of Kansas City recently posted a blog entry telling how he has made some inexpensive, home-made solutions to hauling cargo on his bike:

On the recumbent I a common milk crate can be attached to the rear rack for hauling things. This works well for carrying oil jugs, gas cans, groceries, or materials for recyling. This picture shows the crate attached to my 20x20 LWB homebuilt recumbent using 2 toestraps at top front and a bungee cord across the bottom.

Read the rest of Ohnesorge's simple, practical ideas on his blog.
