big gift, no car

Ah, the joys of not having a car! I'm going to a birthday party tonight and this Bodum grill seemed like a great gift, until I got out of the store and realized that I had a giant gift wrapped box, a bike, a basket full of veggies, and a long trek home.

The box didn't quite fit in my rear basket, so I used my bike lock to secure it to the basket and the cargo rack, then rode very carefully.

Sorry for the poor quality of the photo, it was taken with my iPhone, but you get the idea :)

That's too awesome Sage. I so wish I could bike to work and around town without getting run over by cars. Have fun at your party.
