Hello,
So, I'm on holiday.
We base ourselves out of a self catering cottage and cycle to local touristy places.
We have 2 choices, an upright tandem with me (who truly cannot set off on a normal upright by myself) on the back and our 2yo in a trailer or....
Me on my trike pulling the trailer and my husband on his own bike.
The trailer is new, bought the day before we came...
And advice on pulling a Burley bee on a trike (or a tandem for that matter?) we do have her normal seat with us, but it's a bit of a squeeze on the back of the tandem and my oh's dawes galaxy skips a lot on hills with the weight of trying hard and daughter. And obviously I don't fancy child seat on the trike!
Final bit... We're from good old flat Manchester and out in East Lothian, so some of the hills may be a shock to me (but a necessary one as I need the training for the Manchester to Blackpool ride later this year (not a lot later). Rides'll be around 20miles each way at the very top end.
