How much can you carry on a bike? Well, that depends on how fast and how far you need to go. There\u2019s plenty of inspiration out there, people who use bikes to travel, bike messengers, or just ordinary people trying to move stuff around. A word of caution though, don\u2019t get too inspired, there might be better ways to move a fridge!<\/strong>

Bike messengers, fast and agile<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Bike messengers might not carry the heaviest loads but what they do with them is truly impossible. Most people wouldn\u2019t survive a slow and careful ride through a big city\u2019s rush-hour traffic. Messengers do it every day at high speeds with up to 30 kg (60 pounds) on their backs!<\/p>\n

Bike travelers, slow but far<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Imagine you have to carry everything you own on a bike. Impossible, you say? Some people call that a lifestyle. Sure, they are slow, and they probably won\u2019t break any weight records either, but they are traveling the world with their bike as a house, literally!<\/p>\n
