If ever I live in a city with adequate bike infrastructure and in an apartment with proper bike parking/storage, I'm immediately going to buy a cargo bike. They seem like so much fun to ride, and I'd love to push the limits of what one can carry by bike.

I really have no need for a cargo bike though, to be honest. My front + rear racks with a cheap set of rear panniers and some bungie cords have rarely failed to meet my needs.

I only started biking regularly a few years ago. I am shocked by how much a rear basket, panniers, and bungee cords can carry.
