I'm encountering more and more of theses damn things on my ride along the CS3, taking up their lane and over half of mine. It's dangerous, particularly during peak times as cyclists get stuck behind them and attempt dangerous manoeuvres.
Surely cycleways are for bicycles only (the operative part of the word being bi-, so 2 wheels..) but at the same time, I think cyclists with infant trailers should, of course, also be allowed to use them despite altogether having more than 2 wheels - at least they only take up one lane.
Interested to know what people's opinion of them is. Personally I think they are a pain in the arse and should be banned.
For those that aren't familiar a pedicab is a cycle rickshaw. Here is a picture of what a pedicab looks like. That is not me in the picture.
Ill be willing to answer anything but nothing personal.
My average ride is about 1.5-2.0miles. I take 2-4 people (max was 7 people that day) so I had a couple loads that were easily 700-800lbs... I definitely rode a minimum of 30 miles. So I started wondering how many calories this is actually burning. I am 5'11, 172lbs at the moment. Average speed is probably 12-15mph on flat land. What is a somewhat accurate way to measure this?
So far, I've got a couple good ones... Anything by Queen (esp. Bicycle Race) sounds good, the Get Lucky song by Daft Punk, and whenever I'm in big huge crowds trying to get through, I play "Move Bitch" by Ludacris.
What would you guys recommend to play, that would either possibly attract more customers or entertain the ones I already have?
