	Looks like the weather is finally getting warmer up here in 
Winnipeg, with temperatures hovering around 0 degrees celsius.  Snow's 
melting, and soon I'll be riding my bikes again.

I'm going to put more of an effort into riding every day.  Last year, I 
didn't commute (by bike) to work as often as I'd have liked, so this year 
I'm making it a point to commute as often as I'm able, and to run local 
errands on my bike.  We have a full-service grocery store, liquor store, 
butcher, bakery, and coffee shops all within a 5km radius, so there's 
really no excuse to drive.

As mentioned previously, I'm considering buying a cargo trailer for my 
bike.  It'd let me haul larger grocery loads, and would come in handy on 
Giveaway Weekends if I go scavenging (or when I want to hit local garage 
sales).  Hell, it'll give me an excuse to ride out to Ikea a few 
kilometers away...

Any of you have experience with bike trailers?  Cargo trailers, not 
kid/pet haulers.  @ me on Mastodon, send me an email, or let me know your 
experiences in a phlog post!
