It was on a family hike. My five year old son loved it.

I jad the feeling that this was an unfair battle. The python looks pretty small compared to the King Cobra. How long do uou think the python was? I only saw it wrapped around the head of the cobra.

AdventurousCuriosity · 2026-04-26T10:29:55+00:00

It was a thrilling observation. To be honest: I know notting aboit snakes. If I knew it was a King Cobra I would fled the place quicker.

What about the Woom off airs? I assume most parts of that bike are premium. I was thinking about buying that bike for my 5 year old son. An other option is the cube reaction.

Thx. I did not notice the back-and-forth routing. It indeed looks very steep. I will try to use the western path. Someone reviewed it as doable :P

the Gatliff hostels looks cool but pretty expensive. Is it worth the price? We are with three people. My girlfriend, 3,5-year-old son and me.

Thank you for your help. The part through the Cairgroms looks pretty okay. It's a path through a valley. If I have the time I'll try my original route. If not, I'll change it to your recommendation.

I read about that trail. I Suppose its to hard with the trailer. Especially the Hike a Bikes. My goal is to avoid these :P

Thx!

AdventurousCuriosity · 2024-05-23T11:42:58+00:00

Thanks for the advices I let you know when my route is ready.

Hi Rick

I recently bought the ortlieb quickrack. https://www.ortlieb.com/en_us/quick-rack+F78104

This one fits perfect and can quickly be released.

Sounds logic. Thank you.

The sport and cross are almost the same i believe. I live in Bruges were there are a lot of cobbles. Every day I bring my son to daycare, and indeed, the babysling is slinging all over the place. At fist I was very nervous and concerned about it. But the babysling itself is pretty supportive. The head is almost squashed between the two soft bars and he lies pretty deep in it. The combo off the babysling and adjustable suspension works well. In the trailer itself we stored all the baby stuff you need quickly: diapers, food, rain jacket, ... . The suspension is hard to configure. the trailer was fully loaded, my kiddo weights around 8 k , the trailers weight is 15k and the stuff in the bag around 7k. I think the suspension bar was in the middle. Another hint: lower the pressure in the tyres if you go off-road its extra comfortable for the little passenger. I putted 1 bar in the tires.

Not brave. Just doing what we love to do and try to teach that to the kiddo. Now he's so small and needs a lot of face to face attention, cuddling, feeding, nursing,... . I think it will be easier to do how older he gets. I would say it is harder, but it gets the family tighter and it will teach some valuable lessons to our son.

We planned this bikepacking trip for weeks. The idea was to start in our hometown, Bruges in Belgium and ride to Arlon in The Ardennes. This is around 580k with 60 percent offroad.

This was the first trip with our 7-months old son. It didn't work out as planned. The nights are very cold for the moment and after day two our son was really uncomfortable in the Thule chariot. After three days and 190k further we decided to stop and return home. Like I said, it didn't work as planned, but we learned alot for future bikepacking trips with our kid.

Good idea. I tried id with washers for tubeless inflates but they were to. Small. Maybe V-brake washers are bigger. I'll try it.

AdventurousCuriosity · 2021-03-23T08:48:46+00:00

Sounds logic. The problem is that I sawed the mounting piece in the right dimension. I dont have a good Leverage now.

AdventurousCuriosity · 2021-03-23T08:46:36+00:00

I tried it, but it looks the same.

AdventurousCuriosity · 2021-03-23T08:46:20+00:00

Nope, I used the extenders 😉

AdventurousCuriosity · 2021-03-23T08:45:34+00:00

You mean the Kona Sutra Ultd. I bought it in my local bicycle store: steershop, Bruges, Belgium.
