Wheeeeeeee Ludicrous Speed!

Kid 1 gets the camera to record the ride to school on Bettie. After the slow, grinding climb, we hit Ludicrous Speed on the descent and that’s a big wheeeeee!
Note: this ride is performed by experienced cargo bike cyclists and passengers. Please don’t try this at home.
She complains about how slow we go, until we go fast. Oh and we have an agreement that I drop her off a block from school to prevent mortal embarrassment.
Also, we need to get one a Speed Vest to proudly display our speed.
Am I the only one who has no idea what this post means? Are there supposed to be pictures or something?
don’t know … there’s an embedded video in the post demonstrating a cargo bike going like 100 mph. Are you not seeing it?
ok, got it — yep, the video wasn’t playing across browsers. Should be fixed now. Please shift+refresh, if you don’t see it or clear cache.
If it’s still not working for you, see the video here.
Just tested across browsers with IE being the exception. I’ll flip the code to YouTube later today.
I only hope that my as-of-yet-un-created-children will be half as accommodating of my bicycle habits as Kid 1 here. Props to her (I think the one-block drop off radius is a completely fair negotiation).
Awesome shoes indeed.
