> How are you even transporting your weekly groceries without a car?
My bicycle rear rack is rated for 25KG and I have 2 70L bags, my Wald front basket can handle some additionnal load and I converted my old kids trailer to carry groceries too. I can carry enough.
But you don't have to buy a week worth of groceries in a single day.
Also we are in 2024. Supermarkets do deliveries.
> What if you have family?
There are seats for toddlers and cargo bikes and trailers for those that need to carry more than one. After that kids love cycling. We are constantly saying humans have a way too sedentary life and people need to exercise in order to be healthy. You have here a solution much cheaper both in term of time and money than going to the gym.
> And do you also use your bike during heavy rain/winter/strong heat?
You just deal with it the same way you do when you have to walk from your car in that huge parking lot to the place you are actually going to.
The only limiter is climbs. But if I was limited by my climbing capacity while loaded I would use an e-bike.
