"Just Jeepin'" (macintux)

Just some things I’ve shot recently.
I’ve seen this bike outside my office a couple of times now, so I assume someone uses it to commute.
This has a permanent handicap license plate. I’m really curious what handicap isn’t a hindrance to climbing in and out of a lifted truck, but is sufficiently a problem to need the plate.
But, as my aunt once told me: you can’t tell I need the plate when I leave the car at the mall, but you’d know it when you see me return.
The rise of the electric vehicle is complete.
Speaking of things outside my office, if you didn’t see my post yesterday, here she is again. Sadly the owner didn’t respond to the note I left on the windshield.
And I played a bit with night photography on my new iPhone 11 Pro Max to take some shots of downtown and a bridge. These are two of my favorites: the 2nd was 1/2 second on night mode, the 1st is just a normal shot.

Those bikes are all over the Netherlands. First one I’ve seen in the states. Now I've got some searching to do. I kinda want one
The tank makes me want to be 8 again.

Yeah, that bike looks pretty cool. I once rode in RAGBRAI, it would’ve been fun to carry some extra s upplies in this...for about an hour, then I’m sure I’d have regretted it.

Why do you have to be 8?

Ive got a beach about 2 miles from me and this would be perfect for hauling supplies aka beer.

I’ve seen a giant lifted Jeep with a HC plate just like that Ram and thought the same thing

Yeah thoses bikes are awesome. T hey’re called Bakfiets. I have always wanted to build myself one because they are super expensive to buy. But from what I have researched they make the absolute best cargo bikes.

There is a F250 in my town with HC plates. The guy is in his mid-late 40s and when I’ve seen him climb in/out I call BS.

As with my aunt, appearances can be deceiving. I know that I don’t show it much, but my degenerative disc disease can really mess me up.
But, of course, it could just be BS.

It's a Dutch bike and a Dutch name as well. Traditionally a 'bakfiets' has been the truck version of a 'fiets' (bicycle). So, it's not a brand name. It's a generic name for a bicycle with a loading bed, basically.
