Looking back, I wish I'd done a longtail cargo bike - Xtracycle, BikeFriday Hauladay, Yuba, etc. Probably one of the folding ones - BF Hauladay, Xtracycle Cargo Node, whatever other ones. I know that Cargo Node wasn't out when I would have been buying anyway. Not worth buying one now, but I think I'd still use it some. The full cargo bike (bakfiets, whatever - with the cargo pod in front) I don't think I'd use as much now, as much as it would have been a little better with the young kiddos.
I have to add that I'm not allowed to take them by bike once it gets too cold - currently would be a bit cold, and neither the trailer bike nor my 7yo's bike have studded tires.
