Of course you can be masc and carry a purse. Cargo pants can only hold so many tools after all.

Ginger Snap, Chapter 4

A/N  Here’s the next chapter installment of Ginger Snap.  I now have this story mentally plotted to its conclusion.  It will have a total of 6 chapters, with perhaps a wee epilogue.  In keeping with the theme, the title of this chapter is “Where There’s Smoke”.

Previous chapters are best enjoyed on my AO3 page, because I have a bad habit of going back and editing them after they’ve been posted.

I glanced around the sitting room, trying to see it through a stranger’s eyes.  Well, not a stranger.  Through Jamie’s eyes.

We had sold most of our furniture before leaving Boston, not considering it worth the expense of shipping across the Atlantic.  Frank hired an interior decorating firm to furnish the third floor Southside flat before we arrived.  The overall impression was stylish, if a bit soulless.  Having grown up a virtual nomad, there were no mementos or heirlooms to speak for my personal journey.  For the first time, I regretted their absence.

The buzzer rang, and I shook away my wistfulness.  Jamie’s tousled curls and reckless grin greeted me as I opened the door.  Today he wore a fitted navy jumper, faded grey jeans with frays about the ankles and the ubiquitous work boots.  A messenger bag was slung across his broad chest.  

“I hope I wasn’t supposed to supply the ingredients for today’s lesson, because my cupboards are bare,” I remarked after inviting him in.

“Jus’ as well.  I wouldna squander yer food.  I have all we need right here.”  Reaching into his bag, he removed a clear container filled with chunks of pink meat swimming in a broth of blood.  I wrinkled my nose in disgust.

“What sort of dish will I be making with those?”

Those summer eyes shone in merry provocation.

“No’ a dish, Arsonist.  An experiment.”  

Two saucepans were set on the stove.  Jamie had me place a few pieces of meat into the water of one pot before it warmed.  To the other I added a pinch of salt and a clove of garlic, but waited until it came to a boil before adding the chicken.  After five minutes, I used tongs to move the now-pale flesh to waiting salad plates.  Neither looked particularly appetizing, but the first pot yielded a glutinous blob.

“I suppose this is the control group,” I remarked, looking at Jamie where he leaned against my countertop, ankles crossed like a cover model.  “I’m already quite familiar with what culinary failure looks like, thank you.”

“No’ failure.  Variability,” my teacher argued.  “See here?  If ye want meat tae dissolve til it doesna hold its texture, low heat is key.  An’ if ye want tae infuse it with flavour, always combine heat an’ seasoning at the same time.”

I took a small nibble of chicken from the second pot, and sure enough it tasted mildly of garlic.  It was otherwise quite bland, though.  When I commented on this, Jamie nodded in excitement.

“Aye, verra good.  Nature seeks equilibrium, as ye well know.  Sae now ye have poultry tha’ tastes o’ water and water tha’ tastes o’ chicken.  If ye were makin’ a stew or chicken stock, t’would be a good thing.  Fer anything else, tis shite.”

I laughed, getting into the spirit of his well-executed game.

“Have ye any music?” he asked while we cleared away the results of round one.  “I always cook better with a bit o’ background noise.”

There was a high-end stereo system in the living room, but I doubted Jamie would be interested in Frank’s collection of Brahms, Mahler and Celtic harp.  Seeing my hesitation, Jamie dug out a portable speaker from his bag.

“Do ye mind?”  I shook my head and soon my kitchen hummed with guitar chords and plangent vocals.

The lesson lasted far longer than the scheduled hour.  Jamie had me bake, fry, roast and braise different samples, each time explaining why a particular technique might be used and insisting I taste the result.  It was so much fun, I shed my habitual reticence while cooking.

“An’ now fer the pièce de résistance,” Jamie announced in dramatic tones.  From his seemingly bottomless messenger bag he removed what appeared to be a miniature flame thrower.

“What the fuck is that?” I asked, forgetting myself.

“I wanted ye tae ken there’s a place fer fire in the kitchen, Arsonist.  Tis only a question of picking yer moment.”

With a flick of his lighter, he set the butane alight and handed me the small kitchen torch.  Using extreme caution, I seared the outside of the two remaining morsels until they were a rich caramel colour.  Jamie then wrapped them in foil, placing them in the oven to finish cooking.  When they were cool enough to sample, the outside was pleasingly crunchy and sweet, while the inside swam in moist chicken-y flavour.  We both declared them the winner.

“Tis a funny thing about fire,” Jamie remarked as he packed up his bag to leave by the more conventional front door route.  “It can remain hidden beneath the surface, burying its secrets deep inside.  Doesna mean it doesn’t burn, though.”

I thought about what he’d said long after he was gone, leaving me alone with his signature scent of rising bread and salt air.

That weekend, I blamed the poor weather when I declined Frank’s offer to shop for an engagement ring.

***

The next week, instead of asking to be buzzed inside, Jamie requested that I join him downstairs.

Grabbing a Mackintosh, my purse and slipping into comfortable walking shoes, I joined Jamie outside my door.  He was particularly animated, despite the foul weather.

“We should ha’ started wi’ this lesson, but t’wasn’t the right day fer it,” he explained as we walked towards the farmers’ market that took place twice a week in the shadow of Castle Hill.

I considered protesting that I already knew how to shop for food, but Jamie’s enthusiasm was contagious.

We stopped at every stall, sampling the foodstuff on display, which was surprisingly varied despite it being November.  Jamie knew most of the merchants by name and our progress was regularly halted by conversations on topics as varied as his family’s health, the latest rugby results and Scottish politics.  I envied his wide circle of acquaintance and apparent ease interacting with them.  There was no pretense, no stiffness, just a man who inhabited every square centimetre of his life to the fullest.

Jamie insisted that I taste various produce before adding it to the cloth bag he’d provided.  Honey-crisp apples.  Peppery radishes.  Herb-infused venison sausage.  

“Close yer eyes,” he instructed when I was practically dizzy with all the flavours.  Still, I complied immediately.  A rubbery moisture tickled my lips.  “Open,” he said simply.  I opened.  “Tell me what ye taste, Arsonist.”

I chewed the morsel of cheese thoughtfully, letting the taste and texture coat my mouth before finally swallowing.

“Creamy.  Thick.  Salty.  Sorrel.”

I opened my eyes only to fall into the inky vortex of Jamie’s pupils, which had expanded to almost eclipse his irises.  His hand still hovered near my mouth, muscles frozen in abstraction.  The cheesemonger let out an awkward little cough.  Jamie blinked, and the moment vanished.

“Sorrel?” he asked a bit gruffly.

“Yer lass has a fine palate, Fraser.  My sheep graze in fields full o’ it.”

I allowed myself a smug little smile.  Neither of us corrected the merchant’s presumptive pronoun.

Later that evening, I sat cross-legged before the fire with a picnic for one.  Frank had called from his office earlier to say he was working on notes for an upcoming symposium.  Before me lay the results of the afternoon’s market adventure.  Closing my eyes as I ate,  every mouthful set my senses ablaze.

We never found time to visit the jeweler that weekend either.

***

The next week, I fell ill with a miserable head cold.   Frank was in Oxford for his symposium, so I called Ginger Snap myself and explained to Jenny in a hoarse voice that Jamie should avoid coming to my flat at all costs.

I was curled up in a mentholated daze when there was a series of knocks.  It took several minutes to free myself from my blanket cocoon and shuffle to the front door.  Glancing in the entryway mirror, my hair called to mind an electrified poodle and my nose was twelve shades of raw, but I opened the door anyway.  No-one was there.  Leaning out to peer down the hallway, I practically tripped over a brown paper bag resting at my feet.

Inside was a metal thermos, still quite warm to the touch.  As I unscrewed the cap, my stuffed nose was assailed by fragrant steam.  Homemade cock-a-leekie soup.  I felt a glow fill my chest that had nothing to do with my fever.  Pouring a helping into a mug, I shuffled back to my couch-nest.  I felt better already.

***

The following week, Jamie was distracted.  I’d thanked him profusely for the soup, and asked if he could show me how to make it for myself.  As the chicken thighs and stock began to warm, however, I caught him glancing regularly at his phone, fingers drumming against his thigh.

“Are you expecting an important text?” I finally asked.

“Hmm?  Och, Arsonist, I’m verra sorry.  Tis only that we got a last-minute request tae cater a big corporate Christmas party, an’ Jenny is beside herself wi’ worrying.”  He tucked him phone into the pocket of his cargo pants.

“When’s the party?”

“T’morrow,” he confessed.

“What!  Jamie, what are you doing here?  You should have called me to reschedule.”

“T’wouldna be fair, what wi’ us missing last week on account of yer sniffles.  An’ wi’ Christmas ‘round the corner, I didna ken when I’d... er, when we’d have time for another lesson.”

I turned off the burner with a decisive twist.  Jamie opened his mouth to lodge a protest, but I beat him to the punch.

“Jamie, the soup will keep.  Growing your business is more important. I wish there was something more I could do to help, but under the circumstances...”

“Come wi’ me?” he blurted out.

I was nodding before the words finished leaving his mouth.  Notwithstanding the fact that he had just literally been teaching me how to boil water, I didn’t want to lose his company so soon.   We likely wouldn’t see one another again until after the New Year.

It was a thirty minute walk to Leith.  Jamie could probably have covered the distance in half that with his long strides, were it not for me trotting along beside him.  We stopped at several shops along the way to pick up provisions, arriving at Ginger Snap with our arms laden with the freshest food Edinburgh had to offer.

I had expected Jenny and Jamie to be working alone, but the fire station was abuzz with activity.  I was hastily introduced to Angus, a distant Fraser cousin; Mary, a childhood friend of Jenny’s; and Murtagh, Jamie and Jenny’s godfather.  They worked together like a well-oiled machine, and I stood awkwardly to one side, wondering what the hell I was doing there.  I was preparing to make my excuses when Jamie called me over to a spare station.  He gestured to the commercial-sized sink, which was full of vegetables of every dimension and colour.

“Claire, I need ye tae rinse and then cut these inta nice even pieces.  Can ye do tha’ fer me?”

"Consider it done, chef,” I said with a jaunty salute.

There was a feeling of camaraderie as we each went about our assigned tasks.  I chopped.  Mary baked.  Angus filleted.  Jamie cooked, and Jenny plated the various canapés, salads and sauces and stored them in the enormous refrigerators that lined the back wall.    Murtagh’s role seemed mostly to keep the troops in line with an assortment of verbal barbs. 

Music played in the background.  Volleys of witty banter flowed between us, but never at the expense of the work or anyone’s feelings.  Angus nicked himself with his filleting knife, and Jenny sent him to my station for treatment, saying I was the team’s resident doctor.  I couldn’t remember the last time I’d felt so at home.

Time passed quickly and before I knew it, it was dark outside.  The bulk of the work was done and the pace slackened, the pressure of the looming deadline relieved.  One by one we cleared our stations, meeting at the small seating area to share a well-earned drink.

Jenny sunk into the couch beside me and let out a loud sigh.

“Ouf, I canna believe we got it all done.  Claire, ye were a godsend.  Normally I do most o’ the prep work, but it leaves me no time tae arrange the dishes.”

I demurred, uncomfortable with the praise.

“Nay, Arsonist, ye were amazing,” Jamie began to object, but he was interrupted by my phone buzzing.  Glancing down, I felt my face fall.   I’d completely forgotten about Frank.  Now he was texting, asking me where I was.  I quickly fired off a reply, then stuffed the phone into my pocket.

“Everything alright?” Jenny asked.

“Oh, yes.  It’s only my fiancé, asking when I might be home,” I answered, still distracted by my uncharacteristic lapse.  As I glanced up, I ran straight into Jamie’s iceberg gaze.

“I didna realize ye were engaged,” he looked pointedly at my bare ring finger.  “Congratulations.”  

He said the word as though every syllable pained him.  I quelled the urge to explain, to say it wasn’t a real engagement because I’d never agreed, that I’d only been looking for a sense of security, but somehow found myself in a cage.

Instead I hastily finished my drink, called myself an Uber and quietly wished everyone a good night, all while avoiding the many questions written across Jamie’s expressive face.

How to carry just about anything on your bike

Turn to this guide when you really need to transport those wine bottles you turned into vases. (Sagar Rana / Unsplash/)

Bikes seem like a fun, simple way to replace your daily commute—at least until you add some cargo to the equation. But bikes can pull their own weight. With a little know-how and the right accessories, your two-wheel ride will be able to handle a wide range of loads, from a light-but-bulky box to a month’s worth of groceries, and even a basket of your favorite furry friends.

It’s all about what you’ll move and how often

If you’re only carrying a gym bag and a laptop from Monday to Friday, you don’t need to buy a trailer. And if you plan on bringing your three corgis along for the occasional weekend ride, trying to fit them all in a front basket—as cute as that might look—is just absurd. Let alone unsafe.

The volume and weight of your cargo will determine what kind of gear you’ll need, and how often you have to carry it will determine how versatile you’ll need that rig to be. There are a lot of options and it’s not out of the question to keep a couple of them around in case you need to adapt. We’ll go from the smallest and most basic, to the bigger and more intricate.

Bags galore

Carrying your stuff in a backpack is pretty much the go-to method for transporting small to medium items on a bike, but if you want to avoid those unglamorous sweat stains on your back in the middle of summer, know that you do have more options available.

Messenger bags are a classic choice. Some of them are specifically designed as biking companions, made with weatherproof or waterproof materials, and have comfortable straps that won’t sink into your shoulders or allow your bag to slide to your front as you pedal.

If you don’t want anything strapped to your body, you can always opt for something that attaches to your saddle or handlebars. The former is generally known as that little pouch you strap to the seat post to carry tools or patches in case you get a flat tire. You can use something like this if you’re only carrying your phone, keys, and wallet, but saddle bags also come in bigger formats, with capacities reaching 10 liters.

Handlebar bags are basically fanny packs you attach to your handlebars, and even though most of them have a similar capacity, they also come in bigger sizes that can pack up to 5 liters.

Front baskets

Now all you need is a beret, striped shirt, and a couple of baguettes. ( Metin Ozer / Unsplash/)

An all-time classic, front baskets are a great way to carry medium-sized cargo, such as your tote bag, a purse, one or two grocery bags, or a dog the size of a corgi. Baskets are cheap and easy to install. You can even get a detachable one and use it as a regular basket when you arrive at your destination, or just remove it when you know you won’t use it. In terms of style, you can go for a cheap metallic model, or for a more romantic wicker version that will perfectly complement your assortment of baguettes.

When filled to the brim, baskets can block the front light on your bike—usually attached to the handlebars—so if you go for this option, make sure you get a light you can latch to the front of the basket. Also, it’s not advisable to load heavy cargo on the front of your commuter bike unless the fork is designed and built for it.

Some bikes even have a basket built in as part of the frame. Those can generally handle heavier loads, but have some drawbacks—they’re heavier overall, and you’ll be stuck with the basket even if you’re not carrying anything with you.

Cargo racks

They may be the most efficient and versatile pieces of gear you can add to your bike. They can also be cheap, but cheaper usually means less capacity—generally, up to 55 pounds—whereas heavy-duty, more-expensive racks can carry up to 165 pounds.

Generally, cargo racks attach to the seat post on one end and to the bike frame on the other, though this may vary depending on the model. They are easy to install and detach, but keep in mind you won’t be able to do it quickly and you’ll probably need tools like a wrench and a screwdriver.

Once installed, all you need is a couple rack straps, bungee cords, or cargo netting, and you are good to go. Place whatever you’re carrying on your rack, and secure it with your straps. Make sure they are tense and properly hooked, and wrap them around your cargo as many times as necessary to make sure you’re securing it from all sides. Not doing so will most likely result in all your stuff rolling down the street as soon as you make a turn.

Panniers

A classic way of transporting stuff on two wheels, panniers are basically the biking equivalent of a trunk. These bags are easily detachable and come in all shapes and sizes. It’s easy to find one that’s also made of waterproof or weatherproof materials that will keep your things safe and dry, and if you invest in something a little more stylish, people will even think it’s just a cool bag.

There’s a catch here though—to use a pannier, you need to have a cargo rack installed. Unless you have a secure place to park your bike, panniers aren’t perfectly secure. But if attaching and detaching your panniers is not something you want to be bothered with, you can always opt for a pannier/basket hybrid, which you can screw to your cargo rack. This won’t protect your belongings from the rain and the elements, but at least you won’t have to worry about finding it’s missing when you return from your coffee run.

Trailers

Hitch a little wagon to your bike to transport groceries, or maybe your snarky beagle, that yellow bird that seems to follow him around everywhere, and that friend of yours who still isn't over his blankie. ( Markus Spiske / Unsplash/)

If what you want to carry is too big for a bag or pannier, and you simply cannot strap it to your cargo rack, you need the help of a trailer. There are all sorts of this kind of carrier, and the one you get will mostly depend on what you want to transport.

Most of the time, trailers attach to your seat post or the axle on your rear wheel, and the bigger they are, the more likely they’ll require proper tools for installation. The most common carrier you’ll see is the kid carrier, which acts as a rear car and fits two seated toddlers—or a bunch of corgis. You can also find similar trailers meant for actual cargo that come with waterproof or weatherproof tarps, and even tall trailers that look more like a bike-friendly grocery cart.

If you often find yourself carrying boxes or heavy items that might need more stability, attaching a trailer to your bike might be a great idea if you don’t mind the installation and removal process. Also, carrying a heavy load will definitely make your pedaling more challenging, especially since you’ll have to consider wider angles when turning.

Cargo bikes

If you regularly carry large loads, you may want the pedal-powered equivalent of a truck: cargo bikes. This type of bike has a trailer built into the frame—either in the front or back—which you can adapt with different accessories to safely transport heavy loads, kids and cute dogs.

Needless to say, this is not the kind of bike you’ll want to ride to work every day. This is a rare mode of transportation, and just thinking about trying to lock such a vehicle to a bike rack on the street will make your head hurt. But, since they’re designed with heavy loads in mind from the start, they provide great balance even with lots of payload.

When in doubt, go for the essentials

You might be overwhelmed by options, or you carry multiple kinds of cargo that make it hard for you to opt solely for a trailer or a front basket, for example. If that is your case, the most versatile and comfortable option is to go for a plain and sturdy cargo rack, plus some bungee cords. Cargo netting is preferable, but optional.

The beauty of the cargo rack is that it’s cheap, lightweight, simple, and you really won’t notice it if it’s empty. Bungee cords are compact and easy to keep in your bag for when you need to make an impromptu stop at the grocery store. You can also use your rack to quickly install an improvised and not-so-aesthetically-pleasing rear basket. Just pick up a plastic or wooden crate at a supermarket and secure it to your rack with the bungee cords. This setup is perfect for transporting your favorite corgi.

How to load your bike

Serious cargo requires serious loading. (Clay Banks / Unsplash/)

The exact way to load your bike will depend on your cargo and what kind of add-on you’re using, but these tips might come in handy in all types of scenarios.

Manage weight correctly

Loading your stuff in a backpack, pannier, handlebar bag or saddle bag is rather easy—you just put your things in there, close it, and you’re done. The only problem is knowing how much weight is too much.

If you’re new to carrying stuff on your bike, no matter the method you choose, the general rule is to start small and light, and build up from there. Backpacks are a great starting point—you’ll be the one carrying the load on your back, so you’ll know how much you can handle. Keep in mind it will most likely be less than you think, though—heavy backpacks have been proven to cause severe damage and back pain not only in children, but also in adults.

Panniers are easy, too. The cargo rack handles all the weight, so as long as you’re not carrying more than what the rack was made for, you’ll be good to go. Needless to say, your pedaling will become more strenuous the heavier your load is.

Since handlebar bags are smaller, it’s less likely you’ll be able to fill it with something super heavy. But if you’re into moving bricks two at a time, you’ll have to be careful. A lot of weight on your handlebars will make it harder to steer, so if you have to move fast to avoid a sketchy manhole, for example, you won’t be as quick.

A similar principle applies to front baskets. Depending on the model, baskets either only attach to the handlebars, or attach to the handlebars and to the axle in your front wheel. The latter setup has a higher capacity in terms of weight, but that doesn’t mean it’ll be easier to steer with a fully loaded, super-heavy basket. Also, you don’t want to strain your fork too much, so stay away from any hefty loads that might damage it.

Cargo netting is your friend—use it

Whether in the front or the rear, if you go for a basket, you will definitely want to have cargo netting at hand—it will prevent your stuff from spilling all over the place whenever you hit a bump on the road. I learned this the hard way when my tote bag flew in the air while I rode my bike on a bumpy street. The main victim of that incident was a diamond ring my parents gave me on my 18th birthday. I still haven’t heard the end of it.

Use a kickstand

The lighter your bike, the easier it’ll be destabilized when you put weight on it. If you’re balancing bags on your handlebars (more on that later) or putting stuff in your panniers, it’s likely your bike will fall on its side when parked. Leaning it against a wall is a good idea, but that will only let you load one pannier or put a bag on one side of the handlebars—which will make it unbalanced. Using a kickstand will make things easier, and will prevent whatever you’re carrying from being smashed against the ground and then crushed by the weight of your bike.

Practice wise balancing

If your panniers, basket, trailer, or bag are fully loaded, or you simply don’t believe in bike add-ons, it’s possible you might want to press your luck simply hanging a bag from your bars. The level of difficulty—and danger—you’ll be dealing with, will depend on the weight and volume you’re carrying, plus how low your load is hanging from the handlebars.

You’ll want to keep things as compact and light as possible, and as close to the center of the handlebars as you can. This will prevent your cargo from swinging while you’re pedaling, which is not only annoying, but also dangerous, since it will make it harder to control your front wheel. Your cargo could also get caught between the wheel and the fork, the brake pads, or the spokes. As a result, you could find yourself diving over the bars and onto the ground. But those are not the only factors to consider—your upper body strength, the width of your handlebars, and the build of your bike also play important roles in determining how much you can safely carry using this method.

If you’re hauling stuff often, it’s always a better idea to equip your bike accordingly—it’ll make things easier and safer for you. But if you have no alternative, start small and try to see how much you can handle before things get uncomfortable, bearing in mind that it’s possible you just won’t be able to carry everything you want.

Whatever you do, keep both hands on the handle

You may have seen that picture of a guy on a bike carrying a big chair in one arm. And even though an image like that might make you feel like you could move houses with your bike if you set your mind to it—just don’t. Please keep in mind that “possible” doesn’t mean “safe,” and the fact that you saw it online doesn’t mean you should do it too.

Just in case you have to deal with something unexpected ahead—a bump on the road you didn’t see coming, or the guy in front of you in the bike lane suddenly breaking to a halt—you should always have both hands on the handlebars.

Using one to carry cargo while you pedal won’t only make it hard for you to react in time, but in trying to do so, it’s highly likely you’ll drop whatever you’re carrying—a basket full of corgis, for example—ruining your cargo, but also creating a whole new dangerous situation for whoever is biking behind you. And you don’t want to do that to them—or the corgis.

Bikes seem like a fun, simple way to replace your daily commute—at least until you add some cargo to the equation. But bikes can pull their own weight. With a little know-how and the right accessories, your two-wheel ride will be able to handle a wide range of loads, from a light-but-bulky box to a month’s worth of groceries, and even a basket of your favorite furry friends.

It’s all about what you’ll move and how often

If you’re only carrying a gym bag and a laptop from Monday to Friday, you don’t need to buy a trailer. And if you plan on bringing your three corgis along for the occasional weekend ride, trying to fit them all in a front basket—as cute as that might look—is just absurd. Let alone unsafe.

The volume and weight of your cargo will determine what kind of gear you’ll need, and how often you have to carry it will determine how versatile you’ll need that rig to be. There are a lot of options and it’s not out of the question to keep a couple of them around in case you need to adapt. We’ll go from the smallest and most basic, to the bigger and more intricate.

Bags galore

Carrying your stuff in a backpack is pretty much the go-to method for transporting small to medium items on a bike, but if you want to avoid those unglamorous sweat stains on your back in the middle of summer, know that you do have more options available.

Messenger bags are a classic choice. Some of them are specifically designed as biking companions, made with weatherproof or waterproof materials, and have comfortable straps that won’t sink into your shoulders or allow your bag to slide to your front as you pedal.

If you don’t want anything strapped to your body, you can always opt for something that attaches to your saddle or handlebars. The former is generally known as that little pouch you strap to the seat post to carry tools or patches in case you get a flat tire. You can use something like this if you’re only carrying your phone, keys, and wallet, but saddle bags also come in bigger formats, with capacities reaching 10 liters.

Handlebar bags are basically fanny packs you attach to your handlebars, and even though most of them have a similar capacity, they also come in bigger sizes that can pack up to 5 liters.

Front baskets

An all-time classic, front baskets are a great way to carry medium-sized cargo, such as your tote bag, a purse, one or two grocery bags, or a dog the size of a corgi. Baskets are cheap and easy to install. You can even get a detachable one and use it as a regular basket when you arrive at your destination, or just remove it when you know you won’t use it. In terms of style, you can go for a cheap metallic model, or for a more romantic wicker version that will perfectly complement your assortment of baguettes.

When filled to the brim, baskets can block the front light on your bike—usually attached to the handlebars—so if you go for this option, make sure you get a light you can latch to the front of the basket. Also, it’s not advisable to load heavy cargo on the front of your commuter bike unless the fork is designed and built for it.

Some bikes even have a basket built in as part of the frame. Those can generally handle heavier loads, but have some drawbacks—they’re heavier overall, and you’ll be stuck with the basket even if you’re not carrying anything with you.

Cargo racks

They may be the most efficient and versatile pieces of gear you can add to your bike. They can also be cheap, but cheaper usually means less capacity—generally, up to 55 pounds—whereas heavy-duty, more-expensive racks can carry up to 165 pounds.

Generally, cargo racks attach to the seat post on one end and to the bike frame on the other, though this may vary depending on the model. They are easy to install and detach, but keep in mind you won’t be able to do it quickly and you’ll probably need tools like a wrench and a screwdriver.

Once installed, all you need is a couple rack straps, bungee cords, or cargo netting, and you are good to go. Place whatever you’re carrying on your rack, and secure it with your straps. Make sure they are tense and properly hooked, and wrap them around your cargo as many times as necessary to make sure you’re securing it from all sides. Not doing so will most likely result in all your stuff rolling down the street as soon as you make a turn.

Panniers

A classic way of transporting stuff on two wheels, panniers are basically the biking equivalent of a trunk. These bags are easily detachable and come in all shapes and sizes. It’s easy to find one that’s also made of waterproof or weatherproof materials that will keep your things safe and dry, and if you invest in something a little more stylish, people will even think it’s just a cool bag.

There’s a catch here though—to use a pannier, you need to have a cargo rack installed. Unless you have a secure place to park your bike, panniers aren’t perfectly secure. But if attaching and detaching your panniers is not something you want to be bothered with, you can always opt for a pannier/basket hybrid, which you can screw to your cargo rack. This won’t protect your belongings from the rain and the elements, but at least you won’t have to worry about finding it’s missing when you return from your coffee run.

Trailers

If what you want to carry is too big for a bag or pannier, and you simply cannot strap it to your cargo rack, you need the help of a trailer. There are all sorts of this kind of carrier, and the one you get will mostly depend on what you want to transport.

Most of the time, trailers attach to your seat post or the axle on your rear wheel, and the bigger they are, the more likely they’ll require proper tools for installation. The most common carrier you’ll see is the kid carrier, which acts as a rear car and fits two seated toddlers—or a bunch of corgis. You can also find similar trailers meant for actual cargo that come with waterproof or weatherproof tarps, and even tall trailers that look more like a bike-friendly grocery cart.

If you often find yourself carrying boxes or heavy items that might need more stability, attaching a trailer to your bike might be a great idea if you don’t mind the installation and removal process. Also, carrying a heavy load will definitely make your pedaling more challenging, especially since you’ll have to consider wider angles when turning.

Cargo bikes

If you regularly carry large loads, you may want the pedal-powered equivalent of a truck: cargo bikes. This type of bike has a trailer built into the frame—either in the front or back—which you can adapt with different accessories to safely transport heavy loads, kids and cute dogs.

Needless to say, this is not the kind of bike you’ll want to ride to work every day. This is a rare mode of transportation, and just thinking about trying to lock such a vehicle to a bike rack on the street will make your head hurt. But, since they’re designed with heavy loads in mind from the start, they provide great balance even with lots of payload.

When in doubt, go for the essentials

You might be overwhelmed by options, or you carry multiple kinds of cargo that make it hard for you to opt solely for a trailer or a front basket, for example. If that is your case, the most versatile and comfortable option is to go for a plain and sturdy cargo rack, plus some bungee cords. Cargo netting is preferable, but optional.

The beauty of the cargo rack is that it’s cheap, lightweight, simple, and you really won’t notice it if it’s empty. Bungee cords are compact and easy to keep in your bag for when you need to make an impromptu stop at the grocery store. You can also use your rack to quickly install an improvised and not-so-aesthetically-pleasing rear basket. Just pick up a plastic or wooden crate at a supermarket and secure it to your rack with the bungee cords. This setup is perfect for transporting your favorite corgi.

How to load your bike

The exact way to load your bike will depend on your cargo and what kind of add-on you’re using, but these tips might come in handy in all types of scenarios.

Manage weight correctly

Loading your stuff in a backpack, pannier, handlebar bag or saddle bag is rather easy—you just put your things in there, close it, and you’re done. The only problem is knowing how much weight is too much.

If you’re new to carrying stuff on your bike, no matter the method you choose, the general rule is to start small and light, and build up from there. Backpacks are a great starting point—you’ll be the one carrying the load on your back, so you’ll know how much you can handle. Keep in mind it will most likely be less than you think, though—heavy backpacks have been proven to cause severe damage and back pain not only in children, but also in adults.

Panniers are easy, too. The cargo rack handles all the weight, so as long as you’re not carrying more than what the rack was made for, you’ll be good to go. Needless to say, your pedaling will become more strenuous the heavier your load is.

Since handlebar bags are smaller, it’s less likely you’ll be able to fill it with something super heavy. But if you’re into moving bricks two at a time, you’ll have to be careful. A lot of weight on your handlebars will make it harder to steer, so if you have to move fast to avoid a sketchy manhole, for example, you won’t be as quick.

A similar principle applies to front baskets. Depending on the model, baskets either only attach to the handlebars, or attach to the handlebars and to the axle in your front wheel. The latter setup has a higher capacity in terms of weight, but that doesn’t mean it’ll be easier to steer with a fully loaded, super-heavy basket. Also, you don’t want to strain your fork too much, so stay away from any hefty loads that might damage it.

Cargo netting is your friend—use it

Whether in the front or the rear, if you go for a basket, you will definitely want to have cargo netting at hand—it will prevent your stuff from spilling all over the place whenever you hit a bump on the road. I learned this the hard way when my tote bag flew in the air while I rode my bike on a bumpy street. The main victim of that incident was a diamond ring my parents gave me on my 18th birthday. I still haven’t heard the end of it.

Use a kickstand

The lighter your bike, the easier it’ll be destabilized when you put weight on it. If you’re balancing bags on your handlebars (more on that later) or putting stuff in your panniers, it’s likely your bike will fall on its side when parked. Leaning it against a wall is a good idea, but that will only let you load one pannier or put a bag on one side of the handlebars—which will make it unbalanced. Using a kickstand will make things easier, and will prevent whatever you’re carrying from being smashed against the ground and then crushed by the weight of your bike.

Practice wise balancing

If your panniers, basket, trailer, or bag are fully loaded, or you simply don’t believe in bike add-ons, it’s possible you might want to press your luck simply hanging a bag from your bars. The level of difficulty—and danger—you’ll be dealing with, will depend on the weight and volume you’re carrying, plus how low your load is hanging from the handlebars.

You’ll want to keep things as compact and light as possible, and as close to the center of the handlebars as you can. This will prevent your cargo from swinging while you’re pedaling, which is not only annoying, but also dangerous, since it will make it harder to control your front wheel. Your cargo could also get caught between the wheel and the fork, the brake pads, or the spokes. As a result, you could find yourself diving over the bars and onto the ground. But those are not the only factors to consider—your upper body strength, the width of your handlebars, and the build of your bike also play important roles in determining how much you can safely carry using this method.

If you’re hauling stuff often, it’s always a better idea to equip your bike accordingly—it’ll make things easier and safer for you. But if you have no alternative, start small and try to see how much you can handle before things get uncomfortable, bearing in mind that it’s possible you just won’t be able to carry everything you want.

Whatever you do, keep both hands on the handle

You may have seen that picture of a guy on a bike carrying a big chair in one arm. And even though an image like that might make you feel like you could move houses with your bike if you set your mind to it—just don’t. Please keep in mind that “possible” doesn’t mean “safe,” and the fact that you saw it online doesn’t mean you should do it too.

Just in case you have to deal with something unexpected ahead—a bump on the road you didn’t see coming, or the guy in front of you in the bike lane suddenly breaking to a halt—you should always have both hands on the handlebars.

Using one to carry cargo while you pedal won’t only make it hard for you to react in time, but in trying to do so, it’s highly likely you’ll drop whatever you’re carrying—a basket full of corgis, for example—ruining your cargo, but also creating a whole new dangerous situation for whoever is biking behind you. And you don’t want to do that to them—or the corgis.

Big cargo bag makes light of your heavy load

Lust Checklist: Payload Laptop Bag by Waterfield

When selecting a bag to bring my most precious freight (MacBook, iPad( s), video camera, apple iphone), I generally look for something that offers an equilibrium in between minimalist good looks and higher-carrying capacity.

Waterfield's instead boringly-named Cargo Laptop Bag is a fantastic choice for the pro on the go, with capacious storage space pockets and also a gorgeously-designed external as well as inner experience that never really feels overstuffed, also when I filled it up with all my gear.

So much space

Starting from the top, the high-end YKK water-proof zipper maintains all your things completely dry, and also conceals a padded pocket to fit around a 15-inch Macbook Pro (it cuddles my 13-inch MBP in there flawlessly), a second pocket that keeps my iPad Air 2 in position, and a large internal area that fits my electrical power cord, my DSLR, a book (or more), and all the power wall chargers and also cables I could stand. The Waterfield-exclusive gold lining assists me discover all this things easily, as well as there's one more little flap with 2 big as well as 3 smaller (pen-sized) pockets sewed in to help partition out the equipment when I'm really feeling extra-organizational. There's likewise a vital clip affixed to a tear-resistant ribbon sewed within, if I ever before need to maintain my car keys out of my pockets.

Sleek amenities

The front of the Payload Laptop Bag is a thick flap of natural leather with a seriously solid, unique-looking fastening that has its very own angled zipper pocket on it, which unzips onto a big, slim pocket in addition to a sewn-in additional pocket that fits my iPhone 6 Plus with purse situation effortlessly. The leather (which can be found in both brownish and also black) is currently scuffing up nicely, making a currently stunning freight bag also a lot more attractive. Even better, the front flap doesn't cover the primary compartment, so I never ever have to un-flap when getting hold of out the excellent things inside.

What the natural leather flap does cover, nevertheless, is a good, curved 'moon-shaped' pocket that conceals yet an additional area for storage and a secondary stitched-in pocket that fits my iPad mini flawlessly. I include an exterior battery wall charger in right here, however it would certainly also fit publications or also my cam, as the pocket angles out and also broadens to a nice size without ruining the outer lines of the overall bag experience.

The seatbelt-style, modifiable shoulder strap consists of a removable, non-slip and also supported shoulder pad that aids disperse a heavy load while saving your shoulder, and also the leather-wrapped briefcase handles make this a very easy bring when I'm headed into a workplace or coffeeshop with all my gear.

Another masterpiece

I love Waterfield bags, they're an important part of my everyday job. I typically get all I need in their great Staad Slim knapsack, which features a number of the same layout language as this more recent Cargo Laptop computer Bag, simply with less capacity. I likewise love Waterfield's Wilderness Solo for smaller sized trips. From currently on, the Cargo Laptop computer Bag is my go-to when I'm checking out taking a few more things with me, particularly when I require a carry-on or bike bag that looks as excellent on my back as it does near my feet while I work.

While the cost is certainly even more compared to I 'd typically pay for any kind of other messenger bag, the custom-made designing and also well-balanced layout work with the Waterfield Freight Laptop Bag more than justifies the $349 price, you won't discover a better, better as well as appealing carrier out there.

Price: $349.99
