Well unfortunately I became the latest casualty this morning. About thirty seconds down the road from my house, left turn into a side road and bam, down we went!! Yep, had the baby on the back!!!
B)!
Once I'd managed to get my foot out of the pedal I turned round to see how she was, I think she smiled for about half a second and then she slowly realised that that was not the right response to this particular situation and started bawling uncontrollably
Just had to stand and hold her in my arms for about five minutes while she slowly calmed down. The people at the bus stop just watched on, barely managing to disguise their smirks! Fortunately a woman with her young lad came and helped us off the road and picked the bike up.
We went home and got cleaned up, ten minutes later she was back to normal so walked her to nursery pushing the bike, before cycling the rest of the way into work very timidly.
I don't think I will be taking her on the bike when there is any hint of ice in the future! The seat's strap also broke, the bit the you clip the strap into has snapped. Although the design of the chair did protect her and she did not have a scratch on her, just very shaken up.
A lesson learnt!
