A few of the sites on my blog-roll are written by Yuba owners with multiple kids, and they seem to find it manageable. Yuba make kid seats which fit the rack, you can mount two comfortably. One observation I have had with respect to the Yuba is that I am usually treated better by other road users when I am on the Yuba than when I am on other bikes, possibly due to the imposing size of the bike itself. Might be and enjoyable experience in ManchesterDr C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10234078254243840589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8919432872771641105.post-73022898250053377862010-08-30T17:33:49.882+01:002010-08-30T17:33:49.882+01:00ah!

So sorry I could not make the fair! I sa...hey Mr C! So sorry I could not make the fair! I saw some lovely things on Etsy by Tallulah Taboo that I would have loved to have had a closer look :) I think your idea of a bike vintage stall may go down really well you know?! btw do you know about the bike fair (well sort of) that goes on at Parrs Wood rural studies centre once a month? It's really good, PB found some great stuff when he was building his fixie a while ago. I am really liking the Yuba, I wonder how it would fare with kids and all? (for a future mind you lol!), I am starting to see it as a more streamline version of a dutch cargo bike... I do think Manchester drivers aren't ready for those yet, but I like that the Yuba is a two wheeled bike with super cargo capacity :DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
