BOB with 10Kg Brick


Took BOB for another run today with a 10 kilo load on. Performed well again. I forgot I was towing a trailer at times. Quite often had to check if BOB was still following. At times I could hear BOB's wheel whirling and the flag flapping. I am sure I have made the right decision regarding trailer verses panniers.

BOB's Maiden Voyage

BOB is a trailer attached to the rear of my bicycle and today I took BOB for his/her maiden voyage. I was most impressed, mind you I wasn't loaded up for touring. Will have to make sure my gears and brakes are in A1 condition. I hardly noticed any difference in bike handling with BOB attached except for a little resistance when going up a hill, thats natural I suppose.
