INSULATED STORAGE SYSTEM
An insulated container configured to store cold consumables is disclosed. The container has a body having a curved track wrapping around the body and upon which the body is able to be rolled. The body has an insulated wall encompassing a cavity configured to hold at least ice and consumables.
Staggered Axis Sidecar
Apparatus and associated methods relate to a multi-axial offset side car. In an illustrative example, the side car may include a wheel with an axis of rotation along an axis adjacent to and between a front wheel axis of rotation of a vehicle and a rear wheel axis of rotation of the vehicle. Some embodiments may include a configuration where the axis of rotation of the wheel is centered below a center of a rear wheel axis of rotation of the vehicle. The sidecar frame may be coupled to a vehicle frame by at least three arms. The configuration of the placement of the axis of rotation of the side car wheel between the axis of rotation of the front and back wheel of the vehicle may advantageously prevent tipping and instability. Various embodiments may improve the suspension of the vehicle-side car system.

BICYCLE CONVERSION KIT AND CARGO BICYCLE APPARATUS
What is provided is a cargo bicycle apparatus and a kit for converting an existing bicycle into a cargo bicycle. The cargo bicycle apparatus comprises a cargo attachment that easily attaches and detaches from an existing bicycle to make the existing bicycle more utilitarian and functional. The cargo attachment connects with the existing bicycle in a way that prevents damage or permanent modification to the existing bicycle. Since no specialized tools or mechanical skills are required in the assembly of the cargo bicycle apparatus, the cargo attachment provides the operator with greater convenience and flexibility for converting an existing bicycle into a cargo bicycle apparatus. In addition, the cargo attachment is configured to automatically adjust to the geometry of nearly all existing bicycles without having to modify the geometry of the cargo attachment to match the geometry of a particular bicycle.
