    Unfortunately, I live on the second floor and winters over here have a lot of snow and such. I need my car.

    Fortunately, I chose to live somewhere where I’m comfortable doing groceries by foot. So I can avoid using my car as often as possible.

    Once I have my own garage, or my city comes up with some king of cargo bike share thing, and I get rid of my car, then I’ll definitely use this super often.

      Have you considered a folding bike, like a Brompton? They tend to be easier to carry up stairs or in an elevator. And they’re space efficient to store.

        Perhaps I should have clarified that I do have a bike, and I got the cheapest aluminum bike I could afford. It’s not that bad to carry down the stairs in the back

        But I’ll never be able to manage with a cargo bike

          Ah, that’s totally fair. I thought you had a tight storage situation. Roll on. :)
