Hi good folks and fellow bikists. I broke the frame on my trusty commuter last monday, leaving myself in the lurch so naturally I made a rapid decision and find myself the owner of a rad! wagon.

I'm a little leery from the reputation of the tires but I needed something to get me and my 2 kids to daycare, and myself to work with.  We've made the transition from kids in chariot, to kids on bikes of their own, to winter short truck ride to daycare, and now potentially all of us on the wagon all year.

Radpower's out of the padded cushions for the seats at the back but I've got access to some tools at home that can hopefully make quick work of the DIY job.

So far I've got the plates cut, and am planning on using some garden kneeling pads for butt cushions for the kiddos. I'm comfortable with the woodwork, and metalwork, less so with the upholstery work but only one way to get better.

Here's where I'm at right now.

I've got a bunch of the accessories coming with this thing any day now to speed up the kids on the back way but I think I could've had some fun making up some handlebars, pegs, racks etc still if I'd been a bit more patient. Anyways I'm excited, and looking forward to sharing ideas, and hearing from all your experiences with these things.
