God that's cool, what are you hauling? Wicker and a fridge? What's happening here...

Looks like the old work truck bicycles...

It's for a company who deliver sandwiches to businesses (they're called Pumpernickels) - it's not really a fridge, but it is very well insulated and designed to carry big sandwich trays.

What you can't see here is that the box is on little wheels - the trailer drops it's tailgate and the box wheels on and off so you can leave the bike/trailer outside and take the box inside. The wicker side panels are just for decoration - the front basket is holding the NiMH battery for the electric motor in the front wheel.

The bike is a Monark workbike - they make workbikes for lots of delivery companies. The whole thing really is a beast - about 200kgs I think - but fun to ride once you get it up to speed ;-)

That would be cool - I've tried the Gates on an Orange MTB, and it's very impressive...
