@aaronpk The largest item I've managed is a mattress, but to be honest, I did have to get off my bike and walk with it to my apartment.

while this wasn't in #Amsterdam, and I ended up walking with my bike for the most part IIRC, this is how I picked up a free #microwave here in #BodΓΈ, #Norway:

I attached a vegetable #crate to the back of my #bike and stuck the microwave oven in it. Forgot to bring more rope to properly secure the oven in it though, but it survived the trip, and has served us well for over a year now :)
@aaronpk
well, I do originally hail from the #Netherlands; about 20-30 minutes by bus from #Amsterdam, so it's probably in my blood.π
When you don't have a car / driver's license, you learn to improvise. :)
You should've seen me when I picked up a #secondHand #PS3 and #XBox360 + accessories and games with my bike. Two fairly heavy bags attached to the front of my backpack with carabineer hooks, and the backpack itself also loaded. Prob not the safest way, but you gotta make do. π
@aaronpk I'll not infrequently bring a dozen bottles of vino or a carton of beer home in my courier bag on my back in Australia, but people like me are the exception rather than the rule down under. :/
