Have any of you used one? Did LO like it? FIL brought one over yesterday and we have yet to try it. Did you put a helmet on LO?

Re: Bicycle Trailer
Would this require mom's lazy @ss to get on a bike and pull LO in the trailer? Sounds like too much work for me!
JK - I wish I could get into something like this
I have not tried, it but I bet LO would love it. I would recomend a helmet, as I try and try and try to keep hers on her when she uses her bike seat that is attatched to my bike.
I bought one of those things that tracks your speed and distance for like 10 bucks at walmart, and her and i just take off sometimes. Its great to just get out of the house, so im sure the bike trailer will be just the same.
Good luck getting a helmet on LO, your going to need it. For some reason when I tell her its for her safety, she doesnt care. lol
We got an Instep trailer from target a few weeks ago and just started using it over the last few days. Before that, it sat in the living room and K had a blast climbing in and out. The trailer is a huge hit. He loves to chill and snack while I do all the work. He wears a little helmet and looks adorable. At first, he seriously fought the helmet, but I've figured out that it works best if I get him all situated and then snap it on at the last minute. There are only a couple infant helmets that I found (Giro and Bell) the toddler helmets were too big. I tried both the brands and found the Bell helmet to be easier to get on him.
I used to see quite a few trailers at garage sales and I probably would have gone that route, but I got impatient. Also, my DH is a cyclist, so I figured we would probably get our money's worth from a new one. Good luck!!
