Go on a bike ride
August 2nd, 2008
I had a really enjoyable evening tonight. My wife and the kids and I went on a nice bikeride around our neighborhood. We started out not really with any destination in mind but ended up at a nearby park to let the kids play for a while. As I was bicycling around and enjoying the beautiful summer evening a thought occurred to me, “now this is a great staycation idea!”. One thing that kind of put a damper on the evening though was the fact the we realized our daughter is over the 40 pound weight limitation of the bike carrier. Looks like we might have to invest in a good bike trailer. Any ideas?
Related Staycations:
For smaller children its there neck stability you have to watch, putting them into there car seat then strapped it in really securely that made a big difference to stabilising there head. Though the ‘basket’ style car seats usually strap easily into trailers & offer good support.
As for manufacturers try Burley, Chariot, Trek, Bumber (& Halfords are doing a trailer).
Not going to be the cheapest of purchases though – look out on ebay for 2nd hand ones.
