Urban Arrow equipped for easy family use. Personal stuff goes in front. Child seat rear with space for more luggage or second rear rider.
What about carrying babies and small children? All possible with the right fittings on a new UA. @spokes.org.uk The Breeze uses an easy fit MIK children. The FamilyNext uses a child seat adaptor. Can also fit a child's seat on a rear rack once fitted.
With MIK system you can also click a the front bag behind child seat. Roll top bag carries more than you'd expect. Also got traditional panniers for side.

🌧 ☔️ Not a day for driving. Luckily we don't have a car. 😆 🚌
This week's commute connections working well with extra 15 mins in Dundee due to congestion caused by too much traffic on the A90. Reliably late affordable public transport is ok - particularly when you get accurate updates. 👍
