In celebration of the upcoming Roscoe Village Kidical Mass bike ride and Cargobike Roll Call this Sunday, I”m kicking off another Cargo Bike Week here at Ding Ding Let’s Ride!
First.. let’s make sure you have all the info for the Sunday event:
So what kind of cargo bikes can you expect to find at the Roll Call this weekend? Well, since we’ll be there, you should expect to find at least one Yuba Mundo, a long-tail style of cargo bike.
Three Yuba Mundo cargo bikes with slightly different configurations at a March 2013 Kidical Mass ride in Logan/Palmer Square.
The organizers have stated they’ll have at least one WorkCycles brand bike there, and with the addition of my bike, that should make at least two of the Dutch-style utility bikes in attendance.

Sounds like this this WorkCycles FR8 cargo bike will be there too. This bike can haul some very heavy loads.
They’ve also mentioned that they’ll have a Bullitt cargo bike at the Roll Call ….

and a Bakfiets!

Who knows what other bikes will be at the ride!? Come join everyone for a short family bike ride/parade and stick around to look at cargo bikes!
