I live in the the capital of VA.
I dont have a rack on my bike nor do I plan to put one on, so I'm not going to carry 4 cases of beer on my back. On the same tangent, I don't believe that you carry 4+ 24packs of beer on your bicycle with groceries. I just don't see that happening.
Even more importantly, get a cab? Seriously? That's the stupidest logic I've ever heard. Yeah in an emergency, get a cab.
What's your answer for how I transport my race car, on my trailer, to the track? A big ass cab?
Oops, I forgot that cars are evil so that shouldn't even happen.
