Spoke Fun
Velorbis Mobii Trike
On your mark, get set … go! It’s a race to the playground, and the slickest wheels win.
Off to a raging start is Dirt Bike Brian. Let’s hope he doesn’t hit the skids. No wonder Wagon Wendy’s on his tail — people are really pulling for her.
Hold onto your Huffy: Smoothly appearing at the lead is Velorbis Mobii trike. The Euro innovation just hit our streets and holds up to two tots in a cushioned, harness-equipped carrier box positioned up front. Whee! Everyone’s going wild for the sturdy steel frame hand-built in Denmark and optional weatherproof cover.
Watch as it detours to the grocery store — a smart move, folks; it holds up to 200 pounds of cargo (excluding the driver). At upward of $3,500, this luxury doesn’t come cheap.
But it leaves the competition in the dust.
Available online at copenhagencyclery.com.

Trikes like these are specially designed to safely carry children therefore aren’t simply baskets added to a bike. People who cycle a lot often use these as an alternative to cars so they are not only a healthy option but also extremely environmentally friendly with no damaging emissions. Much more cost efficient in the long run than purchasing a car and pumping it full of gas. I have a friend who has a trike and uses it all the time as a convenient way to take the kids and groceries around.
