Not
to totally self-promote but here is the recently published article in New Haven Living about cycling in New Haven that yes, does include my
family.
Wondering about this, though-- Cargo bicyclists, do you agree with the author's description that cargo bikes are "an increasingly popular symbol of urban chic"?
I am all about utility (and comfort). Chic? Not so much....

While I am really thrilled that cycling is being featured in this magazine and that Elm City Cycling and Matt Feiner get the credit they so richly deserve for helping to make New Haven an ever-growing, bike-friendly city, it is hard for me to ignore the glaring editing error of misnaming The Devil's Gear Bike Shop early in the article.
The author mostly got my quotations correct. I can say with certainty that I've never actually uttered the words "Moreover" aloud in my everyday speech but we'll go with it. There is an incorrect preschool detail but it doesn't radically change the idea for anyone but me.
Ultimately happy though that cycling gets more and more attention as folks figure out their transportation needs and desires. Hoping that more and more people see bicycling as a viable and do-able (even with kids!) option.
Forgive me for admitting that I wished they had used this photo instead in the article, but it is nice it's up on the web slideshow...

Cargo bikes might be becoming chic; the question is whether the folks already using them have any desire to *be* chic. I think it's a common issue with lots of trends. (Where I am... well, chic isn't a big deal.)
