    When the going gets tough...

    I've been thinking, maybe a dangerous thing to do but it all started with a post on Organiblog entitled "Self-Propelled Engine".  As I read this post I thought, "well that would be OK if I lived in town, but I live about 4 miles out of town with some pretty steep hills along the way.  How would I bring back groceries for five people on a bike?"  As I searched for some answers I came across this cart.  Hmmm, now the impossible becomes the possible.  Could I actually make it to town and back with something like this?  The only thing really holding me back might just be my own reluctance to expend that much energy.  Still with gas at $3.09 a gallon, I think I might be bike shopping very soon.
