Hello /out/, I'm going to be camping and blueberry picking in about 2 weeks. I live in nothern Ontario, Canada and have decent outdoors experience. I come here looking for advice regarding berry picking and camping in general.

Depends on the model and tires. I'm about 5'10" tall with short legs and fit them all fine. They come with electric and pull starting systems and there are still aftermarket parts available, though they are illegal to drive unless on private property as you cannot insure them

you could fit it decently if you had a well padded seat or a nice cushion. a friend of mine who was your size has ridden my 200cc and 250cc Honda trikes. Also its not hard to lose weight on them if you find it slow

Learn to speak thai, we have tons of thai berry pickers in Sweden that leave litter in the forest.

Get a good berrypicker (pic) and a lot of buckets.
And a durable back, because you will be bending over most of the time

I've tried using one of those but it was made of wood. Doesn't that pick up as much twigs and leaves as berries though? I just pick blueberries by hand. That way I have minimal twigs/leaves to filter out when I'm done. I go picking up upstate New York. Maybe they grow differently up north?

Those picking baskets are illegal in some places because they destroy much of the plant for making berries in future years. I usually walk around until I find the thickest spots of blueberries within arm's reach and then sit down and hand pick.

Is that picture shooped? I tried starting from each letter and there is no word that makes sense for a company name. Unless six partners started a company and those were their initials.

Still, the picture is shooped to make one E look like an L.

Thanks for the research, though, /out/doorsman.
