Above we have a low-energy urban transportation solution that was parked down on the Avenue. Very European-looking. Not really my style, BUT worth its weight in gold for the next hundred years, I wager. In a collapsed economy, a man could eek out a living with this machine, carting other people's shit around for a fee.
And here we have something called a Burley Travoy Bike Cargo Trailer (more info HERE). The stand-up design allows this trailer to take up less space than other trailers, and also function as a hand cart. Oh, and this puppy is also collapse-able. This kind of gadget is very, very high on my GOOD list, because with a bicycle setup like this you can carry your own shit with you and get the fuck out of Dodge without needing gasoline. And you can also traverse terrain that is completely off-limits to a vehicle. I'm talking about sidewalks, pedestrian paths, gridlocked roads and rubble-strewn urban avenues. Let's face it, if shit goes south, we're going to run out of gas pretty fucking fast. What does that mean? It means: KEEP YOUR MOUNTAIN BIKE IN GOOD RUNNING SHAPE, YOU HIPPIE FUCK!
