Photo Focus: Kids on bikes

In light of this week’s headlines on the safety of biking with small children, I took some time to sift through the BikePortland photo archives (that currently houses over 22,000 images). I looked for shots that depicted especially memorable scenes of how Portlanders (and one guy from Davis, California) carry kids on bikes. Here’s what I found…

Some dapper young lads from at the 2010 Tweed Ride…

You need a sturdy bike like the Mundo to haul three kids easily and still have room for another…

This young lady is quite experienced. Don’t try this at home.

This is a scene from Davis, California that I snapped in 2008.

Now that’s a cargo bike!

Me and my girls (then 1 and 3 years old) trying out a Haley Trike in August 2006.

One of our friends took her three month old on a 35 mile, overnight bike-camping trip in July 2009.

I’d do it if I were her… Wouldn’t you?

It’s not everyday you see an authentic, imported rickshaw rolling through downtown.

Good thing her daddy is a trained professional.

Have a great weekend everyone! Check out the riding action in the Weekend Guide and I’ll see you back here on Monday.
