Hi to all the cyclists! I am on cloud 9 - actually got to ride twice this weekend, with my schedule that isn't always possible.

Hi Sen! I didn't know you used a trailer - thought your daughter was beyond trailer age? I have a Burley Cub for my guy. We started a couple of years ago with a cheapie trailer but he ended up pushing the side out last year and making contact with the wheel - it scared me so much that I immediately retired that trailer and invested in the Burley. It is just so hard to climb with my extra weight and also the trailer, but it's so much fun. I just can't believe my rambunctious toddler sat in the trailer for 20 miles without a break.

The whole reason I got a trailer was for safety reasons. Plus, I don't have great balance myself and can't imagine having a 35 lb toddler in the seat behind me flailing around. I don't think I'll be dropping folks anytime soon though, it's tough pulling a trailer against the wind.
