Sure can! I do all the time. Front load in a basket, often 10 lbs,
sometimes more.

If you can jump while holding your bike you should be able to bunny-hop
while riding your bike given enough practice. Clipless pedals do genuinely
help here.

Do note: A wheelie, a bunny hop, and a curb hop are different things, at
least to me.

A wheelie is lifting only the front of the bike, smoothly, and then
balancing on the back wheel. I never learned that one.
A bunny hop is lifting both wheels simultaneously, generally at moderate to
high speed, to clear a railroad track or branch or something.
A curb hop is generally lifting up one wheel at a time, usually at very low
speed. Front up, pause, rear up when it gets to the curb.

Like I said, I can only do the latter two. They're similar, but they feel
different when I do 'em. Which one is it you're working on?
