Xtracycle sells a stoker bar kit, but I had all of the bits laying around.
Mom photographed our first departure, but I wish I could have recorded the squeal of excitement that Gwen made when hit cruising speed. She loves it!

Stoked
After watching this Totcycle video showcasing some of the ways other Pacific Northwest families mobilize on bikes, my oldest daughter reminded me that we needed to put some stoker handlebars on the back of our Xtracycle .

Nice! I like your rear fender too ... be careful, though, if your daughter ends up inspired by the carfreedays rascals she may be surfing the snapdeck before you know it.

ReplyDeletedid you see that Xtracycle gave you a shout-out on their Facebook status?
ReplyDeleteHey-- I just saw this on Xtra's FB page too! Yay, Matt! And yay for stoker bars. Can't wait to discuss your Madsen rides vs. your Xtra rides. We are currently in full Xtra mode, leaving the bakfiets at home in the cold weather (gearing issues). So happy to have the stoker bars & room for two boys on the snapdeck.
