The boat is now full of food!

Instead of doing one big supply run(friends often offer car rides), Dev & I do frequent grocery runs by bike. We've been doing this for a few weeks now.

We can carry a lot at once. A few days ago I had 12 kg of grains on my back.

Doing it this way takes more time, sure, but it permits us to go for a bike ride often, which is nice :> 🚲 !

@rek yes there is that myth that one would need at least a cargo bike to replace a car but you can already carry a lot with a simple rear rack rated for 25kg and decent panniers.

Add to that an hiking backpack, possibly a front rack or basket and you can carry even more. And it scales automatically with the people going with you, unlike when using a motorized vehicle.
