I thought some of you might like this.
Wehoo I go bike trailer. The seat moves backwards and forwards and can take up to 9 year old kids. The pedals are attached to the chain so the kids can pedal the rear wheel to give a boost when required, or as my two do, just freewheel and take it easy whilst I do all the work. The kids are fully strapped in with a two point harness and pedal straps.
It certainly seems to turn heads and I have spoken to a few dads who said they liked the look of it an wanted to know more.
It's a god send for us as my youngest has cerebral palsy and certainly cannot pedal a bike for herself so this is the next best thing so we can all go out as a family, she loves it. Anyway a few pics, sorry about my ugly mug.

Looks a lot of fun - do you think your daughter co-pilot might want a pair of goggles though? Just a thought, as the seating position seems to be in the firing line for whatever gets flicked from under the wheels.

That is a good point, she has got her glasses on but I think you are correct she should have something a bit sturdier.
I'll see if I can get some flying goggles for her!

nice, just stay away from puddles, muddy tracks etc or your passenger might not thank you for the liberal spraying from your back wheel
