"And what about grocery shopping?"

I'm still learning, and I still need a car for a lot of things, but this is still greatly satisfying!

ITA:
"E come fai a fare la spesa in #bici"?
"Così!"

Sto ancora imparando e posso migliorare, comunque non posso rinunciare alla macchina, però sono belle soddisfazioni!

Didn’t know there were so many Italians in the sub :) For everyone else, OP said basically the same thing first in English, then in italian

@eutampieri

Actually this is thanks to fediverse magic: I post from a mastodon account, but by mentioning the bikecommuting community the toot is also a Lemmy post.

Italians commenting this post are mainly my mastodon contacts who are mainly from Italy 😉. But this should allow them to know this very interesting Lemmy community

I wasn't aware I was in lemmy: what a great community!
sorry for posting in italian here.

@De_Treias
my fault, not yours. I'm experimenting a bit, I will make this explicit next time I post like this 😉.

There is no strict rule about language in @bikecommuting by the way, so I thought that posting both in English and Italian was ok.

take my upvote!

Normally I manage the whole week grocery shopping with 2 (now ~12 years old) panniers + 1 Ikea bag as a rucksack, a couple of years ago I was using my kids trailer (now broken).

ecco il mio voto!

Normalmente faccio la spesa per tutta la settimana con 2 borse laterali (ora hanno ~12 anni) + 1 busta Ikea come zaino, un paio di anni fa usavo il rimorchio dei miei figli (ora rotto).

@kidpixo great setup, it's a shame that I can0t see the picture from Mastodon, but I can from lemmy 😕

Very nice panniers BTW

I have a small trailer with double stack of boxes (2× the size of a case of soda) that I use for about 90% of my good for a small restaurant. I use one for our regular home shopping about 1x per week. More than enough.

@Che_Donkey
A restaurant! That must be a lot of stuff!

how much drag does a trailer cause?

@bikecommuting

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

Got one for less than 150-175€, plus an extra container for 35€? Insulated bag (especially for summer) another 10-15€.

@lgvs
io sono ancora un po' più indietro, e per il momento ho solo uno zainetto che mi aiuta, ma ho un portapacchi da parte che monterò presto

@De_Treias
Una volta sono andato al mercato con borsa da portapacchi e zaino e sono tornato con i porri in spalla che fuoriuscovano dallo zaino.

Alla fine spesso preferisco lo zaino e la bici "liscia", ovvio che dipende dal carico

@12ax7 @De_Treias

Io ho visto su un famoso social network (ehm) la pubblicità (a volte funziona) di queste cobags, ne ho prese un paio, viso che costano relativamente poco.

Avendo fatto la lista della spesa sapevo che la roba ci stava. Le clementine non erano previste, ma sapevo che le cassette di cartone stanno bene sul portapacchi con la "molla" 😊
