Luckily living so close to Oxford Cycle paths are bloomin everywhere! I'll only be using them and where there isnt one i'll just get off and push.

And on the test run we just did, people seem to give me a lot wider berth than when i just had the seat on the back, which can only be a good thing.

I have this trailer that my son Dylan absolutely loves- unfortunately my hybrid got stolen and I got a Specialized Camber full sus to replace which has the 15mm threaded axle and the trailer hitch is incompatible.

Still the mrs can tow it with her bike  :grin:

Soon as she's big enough get her on a trail-bike.  Ours both love the one we have and it means you can take them out for long rides, too.  I've taken our eldest out for a 10 mile ride before now, without whining.
