the new bike trailer came through

Ken and I rode to the tip of Leslie Spit today. The trailer made it very easy.

Until I was cycling back against the wind and Someone fell asleep. Then it was not so easy.

Yet the trailer came through even then - being of a reclined design, Ken was able to doze safely. With the other upright trailers, that's not possible. And the two-wheel tent-style trailers are slow and cumbersome. We heard someone using one remark on the design of our (much smaller and lighter) Weehoo.

rand()m quote

A civilization is a heritage of beliefs, customs, and knowledge slowly accumulated in the course of centuries, elements difficult at times to justify by logic, but justifying themselves as paths when they lead somewhere, since they open up for man his inner distance.

—Antoine de Saint-Exupery
