+1 for the Yuba Supermarche. That cargo bike is super fun to ride. The steering takes a minute to get used to, it has a 4:3 ratio. For every degree you turn the handlebars, the front wheel turns 1.33 times more. It handles speeds up to 30mph suprisingly well.

I made a quick video when we got one in the shop last summer.

You can also add electric assist to cargo bikes such as these, making them even easier to use.
