Great shots Rob. Thanks for sharing. I've been dragging my daughter around on and behind bikes for all of her young 8 years. By FAR... by a huge margin, her favorite has been in the front where you have your daughter... I have so many great memories of chattering away with Maddie while we tooled around town on daily, otherwise mundane errands. She was into signaling and ringing the bell too. Fun times. http://johndogfood.com/john/reduced/03-30-06%20006.jpg Yes -- Albatross bars make this set up a breeze.
