Anne,

 

I do the same. A SaddleSack Large and a double kickstand makes it really easy. 
My bike is slimmer and easier to maneuver than a shopping cart.

 

Yes, not having to carry and futz with a lock is a big bonus.

I often stop by the grocery store on the way home from a ride. If I don't have 
a lock with me, I use the two wheeled grocery cart.

I didn't say it couldn't be done, obviously it can be, but that's pretty much 
the interior dialog.  I have a bike I can ride in regular street clothes and 
shoes that I use for errands.  Lots of people bring bikes to the grocery store, 
but I have never yet even once in my entire life seen anyone bring one into the 
store.





 

at least 3/4 of my riding is turning shopping and errand trips into cycling 
detours on such bikes. At 12 to 20 miles each, rt, it's worth my while to 
change into cycling kit -- such as it is. Certainly SPDs.

It's a right pain walking around in a store shopping wearing cycling shoes.  
Also, odds are good a bike you'd use on a "regular" ride couldn't carry 
groceries anyway.  On top of that, what are the chances the bike would be 
stolen?  Hardly worth taking the risk.  It's a lot more than just "too much 
trouble to get into the uniform."
