A recent post made me want to share and see how other people are carrying and towing voluminous stuff with bicycles. Show us your #carryshitolympics, or just regular hauls.

For example, I live on an archipelago and have a kayak and a SUP that I carry around with bike trailers. Depending on my destination and what I'm carrying, I use an Aosom trailer with a flat bed, but most of the times I can get away with a lighter Burley Travoy. Here are some pictures.

I'm boring, panniers and/or a backpack. Got a front basket (Wald?) that I hate - holds fuck all weight and unbalances the bike with anything decent in it.

I tried to build an e-cargo bike out of an old Australia post delivery bike but the bike was too small for me, shame as it was rated to 190kg.

I'd love a mid-drive, belt-drive dutch-style cargo-bike where I can put someone on the front and rear racks without issue.
