We lived in the Netherlands for 3 years and found the "bike by default" way of life amazing and transformative. We got the Bunch Bike to let us carry cargo as well as our kid, or bring our kid and her friends, or our kid and her bike! As a short woman, I LOVE how the three wheels make it completely stable when stopped. We love the flexibility of being able to pick up additional kids without the whole kerfuffle of car seats and boosters - we keep an extra bike helmet in the bench for a friend at all times. Every single time we take the Bunch bike grocery shopping we get asked about it with wonder and amazement! We go to a lot of protests, and it's so fun to decorate the bike. The two wheels in front still feel unfamiliar to me, and it's harder to avoid potholes and objects in the road on the bunch bike, so the ride can sometimes be a little bumpy.
