One reason I prefer trains over planes…

@futurebird @davidho a friend of mine sometimes cycles with an inflatable boat on her bike to the next town up river, where there's a vegan doughnut shop she likes, buys a box of doughnuts, inflates the boat, straps the bike to it, and paddles back home snacking on doughnuts. I do not think I could do that trip but I'm impressed.
@dragonfrog @futurebird @davidho
That is wonderful.
It's like that puzzle about the farmer with a boat who has to get a fox, chicken, and bag of grain across a river.
But your friend gets to be all the things and go all the places and eat the donuts too.

My husband is unreasonably excited by any example of putting one form of transportation on another form of transportation. This reached perfection in his eyes when we went on a journey with folding kayaks and folding bikes each could be carried on the other.
"We are unstoppable! We could circle the earth!"
The folding kayaks were a cool idea but VERY heavy and needed a bike trailer to tow them. So... I was not as excited... but it still was a lot of fun.
Anyway he loves this photo.
@futurebird @davidho I have a dream to make a bike trailer to hold kayaks that can then be towed by a kayak and hold bikes so I can do weird combo adventures
