I'm coming up on about 6 months of car-free life in Seattle. It's certainly been challenging at times, and it's only possible at all because I work from home, but I'm making it work. I'm curious if anyone else is trying to do the same thing. There are a ton of anti-car communities online, but very few people seem to actually go car-free as, like, an ideological thing

Can I get a link to this bike? I wanna see what's up with a bike that can double as a shopping cart.

Sure, Brompton is the brand. There's lots of videos and stuff out there. This is the company website: https://www.brompton.com/

Not my pic, but this is how they look in "shopping cart mode": https://i.redd.it/0ijx1ewfxip21.jpg

The bikes have a special mounting bracket for the bag, and it's designed so the bag can just stay on the whole time, even when the bike unfolds again.
