I’ve got to admit that the level of ingenuity shown by some folks in using bicycles is pretty high. Take for example this combination of two adult tricycles and a shopping cart I saw outside of my workplace this morning when I went to refill my coffee.
This beast seems to be constructed from a blue Torker Adult Tricycle, though not their current model, up front. There’s a large basket behind the seat post as befits a utility bike. Grafted on the back of the frame is the back end of another tricycle, again with basket. This makes the whole thing sort of a pentacycle.
As if that’s not enough, in two, creating a train of sorts, is a shopping cart.
The whole affair is locked up, which probably didn’t make the guards at our building bound with joy. When I came back with my coffee refill it was gone.
This whole thing really makes me want to ask two important questions….
- Is this the touring bike of the future?
- Are those 650Bs?
