Luckily, my two girls are able to ride in the back without being uncomfortable. As far as riding on the sidewalks, I usually don't, but on this shot, I was entering the park through a driveway. My wife usually follows me when I ride with both girls, she is sort of my 'bodyguard'. I’ve hooked up my trailer to the Xtracycle, it makes for a super long bike and much heavier.

The hitch is the one that wedges it self in the rear triangle. The only thing you have to do is unlace the FreeLoader Strap and then re-do. Chad- I have hooked my old Burly to mine.

If so how did it go? I have two munchkins (4 and 1). Right now I haul them around in a Chariot Corisaire XL and all is well; however, my oldest will soon be too big for it. I am considering a Surly Big Dummy that he can ride on, but I will still need the trailer for the little one -- at least for a little while. Thoughts?

Just curious because I may get a trailer for my two younguns, and don't how confident I am that they are safe on the road. When towing the kids, do you normally ride on the sidewalk?
