I'm considering adding a trailer to the Ewz, but so far I don't
need it. I have plenty of cargo room with the baskets and the
floor of the scooter.

I agree. If you ever do add a EWZ trailer, I look forward to you
sharing pictures of it and your experience with it. 8)

If I do, it will likely be the Maya Single Wheel Trailer that
comes in around $200 with shipping.

For me, besides the BEER, that is EZ 1 month in groceries.
If I am not producing Beer on location, unless I have a Big Rig
at my disposal I have to ship it the last mile to my digs on a
weekly basis. lol.

/>Bicycle Sidecar for your Dog [img

by travderose
The inspiration for this project came from stevebod and the
bicycle sidecar he built:
HTML http://www.instructables.com/id/Build-a-Bicycle-Sidecar/
After seeing stevebod's build, I immediately became intrigued
and knew I had to build one for myself. There was only one
problem: I don't have a child to ride in my sidecar. I do,
however, have a dog named Dewey who would love to go on bike
rides to the dog park. So with this solution, I began building
my sidecar!
I built mine to be adjustable and pivot like stevebod's design
but mine isn't exactly the same. I didn't need to make mine as
sturdy as his because mine would only hold a 15lb dog, not a
child. I also wanted mine to be able to be quickly attached and
detached without the use of a wrench. I also had the goal of
building it without welding mainly because I don't have the
supplies for welding and I don't want welding to intimidate
people who want to build this. So with that, let's get to it!
Step 1: What You'll need
Supplies You'll Need:
•Metal• (18") of 2"x1" rectangular aluminum
• (64") of L-shaped aluminum
•(4") of thick 2" wide steel strip
•(12") of 1" wide aluminum strip
•JB kwikweld
•Black Plasti Dip (can also be bought at home depot)
•(2) J-bolt style Gate Hinges (I got mine at Home Depot)
•16" Bicycle Wheel
•Wood •1/4" plywood
•the thinnest plywood you can find
•1/2" plywood
•1x2 lumber
•1x3 lumber
•Hardware •1/2" long lath screws
•(2) Cotter pins appropriate for a 1/2" shaft
•(8 ) [3/8" x 1-1/2"] bolts with appropriate lock washers and
nuts
•(6) [3/8" x 2-1/2"] bolts with appropriate lock washers and
nuts
•(2) [1/4" x 1-1/2"] bolts with appropriate lock washers and
nuts
•Gray spray primer
•Flat black spray paint
•(1 quart) flat paint for your sidecar
•(13" x 28") 3" thick cushion foam (I got mine at a local
upholstery supply shop)
•(1 yard) vinyl faux leather (I got mine at a local upholstery
supply shop)
•(8') 3/4" polypropylene strap
•(2) 3/4" metal bolt snaps
•(2) 3/4" metal slides
*Before we begin I would like to note that I have written this
instructable in the most logical order in which you should build
this sidecar. However because it was my first time building this
sidecar, I didn't build it in the most logical order. So you may
notice some things are painted or finished in photos before we
have even gotten to that step. This is because I have reordered
everything to make it as logical and easy as possible for you.

[center]How to Build a Two Wheel Cargo-bike[/center]
by GiulioC14 in bikes
SNIPPET:
This is the story of an old MTB frame, a newborn daughter, a big
love for cycling and how all that eventually led to the creation
of a Cargo Bike. It was 2011.
Some years later (and many other Cargo builds) our project of
recycling old MTB frames eventually turned into a bigger one.
But that is another story.
In any case, even if a long time has passed from that first
bike, we are still very passionate about Cargo Bikes as we think
they really can make a difference in urban mobility. So we
thought..what about sharing our experience, to help as many
people as possible to build their own bike? Of course the answer
was yes!

[center]How Popular Are Bicycles in the Netherlands?[/center]
Amsterdam is nicknamed "the Venice of the North," but rather
than gliding down canals in gondolas, the residents of the Dutch
capital prefer to pedal on the pavement. According to recent
statistics, there are more bicycles than people in Amsterdam
;D, and 40 percent of all travel there is done by bike [img
width=50]
HTML http://renewablerevolution.createaforum.com/gallery/renewablerevolution/1/3-250718204746.gif[/img]--<br
/>compared with about two percent in London
HTML http://www.createaforum.com/gallery/renewablerevolution/3-200714183312.bmp.<br
/>
Amsterdam is so into pedal pushing that an enormous system of
bike paths has been developed to allow cyclists to go anywhere
they like, shunning what little car traffic is still stubborn
enough to exist.

[center]Bike Paths in Amsterdam[/center]
And it's not just Amsterdam -- most of the Netherlands is all
about bikes. The nation has around 22,000 miles (35,406 km) of
cycling paths, and all of the larger Dutch cities employ civil
servants specifically tasked with maintaining and improving the
daily lives of riders.
Bike by popular demand:
֍ There are approximately 1 billion bikes in the world,
with China leading the pack at roughly 400 million.
֍ Bicycles existed before the word "bicycle" did; in their
original 1830s form they were called "velocipedes."
֍ The fastest speed recorded on a bicycle is 167.044 mph
(268.831 km/h) :o, set by Dutch cyclist Fred Rompelberg in
1995.
