Motherload Documentary and Q&A with the Director

As part of this fall’s Go By Bike Week event, The West Kootenay Cycling Coalition is hosting this inspiring and award-winning documentary that uses the cargo bike as a vehicle for exploring parenthood in this digital age of climate change!

Filmmaker Liz Canning cycled everywhere until she had twins in 2008. Motherhood was challenging but to Liz, hauling babies via car felt stifling. She Googled ‘family bike’ and uncovered a global movement of people replacing cars with cargo bikes: long-frame bicycles designed for carrying heavy loads. Liz set out to learn more, and MOTHERLOAD was born.
