We spent a couple of relaxed days at the cargobikefestival in Nijmegen. Sebi had to cover sunday alone with his #6 but I managed to join him in time for an informal rideout on monday with #2.

Finally on monday evening we were joined by our cargoracer #8. Jakob, who kindly agreed to bring the bike from Berlin cargobikerace to Nijmegen was chucked out of the train which treated him to a nightly bike ride back home on the Bastiaen Cargo and he seemed quite delighted.

We spend the morning with a joint foto session with Diego Brunellos Alpacargo (don´t those two bikes look like from the same stable?) and then went out for dinner.

Sunday began with a visit of Velorama bike museum (inspiration for the future and a deep bow before the ancestors achievements!) and ended with a shockig ride on a chinese rear-steering tricycle. Actually it rode surprisingly well but - being a sailor - I understood the rear wheel as a rudder and kept steering wrong direction because the handlebar is not a tiller.
