As it is with many coastal communities, beach parking is extremely limited during the peak Summer months.  If you aren’t at the beach by 10 am during the Summer season you won’t find a park spot.  So, often we just bike to the beach and leave our car at home.  We get a little exercise, some fresh air before we get to the beach, the added benefit – is you never know who you’ll run into on the way there.  Not a bad way to start the day!  

 

Rather than carry a backpack as we bike to the beach, we prefer to carry our beach supplies in a handy bike basket.  Our bikes need a sturdy, tough bike basket to contain our beach gear – water bottles, snacks, sunscreen, beach towel, hat, and phone.  Since the beach we usually go to typically doesn’t have bugs, we will skip the bug repellant.  

 

We’ve been looking at various bike baskets and this is what we found.  Take a look and let us know what you think.
