Bike Seat for Carrying Children

Biking is a great spring activity after work and during weekend days.

I like to kiddie carriers mounted on the bike better than the one that attach to the back of the bike. Here are some great alternatives. Which one do you like? I would love to hear your comments before I purchase one.

The Women: A Novel by T.C. Boyle

Review From The New Yorker (Copyright ©2008)

Boyle's latest novel takes on the architect Frank Lloyd Wright by examining his notoriously tumultuous relationships with four women, each unique in her own histrionic way. Narrated in reverse chronological order by a fictional Japanese apprentice, the book is extremely readable and deftly builds a portrait of the artist as pure egoist. Unfortunately, the novel avoids any sustained consideration of Wright's relationship to his art a passion arguably more important in forming his genius than any of the women in his life were. Still, it proves an effective showcase for Boyle's own strengths as a craftsman. His prose is full of vivid descriptions and turns of phrase that pop with a preternatural precision.
