Load Lugging: Great Flickr Group

Source: www.flickr.com

Posted: 7 July 2008

Photosharing site Flickr is always a great way to see what the world is up to and this includes the world of the cyclist. The Flickr group I carried this on my bicycle shows that there is practically no limit to what the bike can do. Next time you think you need to take the car for that shopping trip, take a look at this and think again.
