Bike Seat?
DH wants to get a bike seat for our DC who is 1 year and 1/2 for the back of his bike so we can go bike riding together.
I don't know how I feel about this. As much as I think our DC would love it and how nice it would be for us to all go together - it makes me so nervous.
Does anyone have a bike seat for their DC? If so, are there any you recommend? What is the safest helmet?
or should I tell DH to forget the whole idea?

Re: Bike Seat?
What if you got a trailer instead? That way, they are much lower to the ground, and less likely to tip over.

Re: Bike Seat?
We are getting a seat. Mainly because we used one on vacation and DS LOOOVED it! They both scare me, but I have this fear os someone hitting hte trailer because it is lower and wider than the bike. Also, I don't think my DS would like it as much, he wants to be close.

We have the Bell Cocoon Mounted Bike Seat. I like that it kind of nestles DD. I don't remember the brand of helmet we have but we got both the seat & helmet at Sport Authority.

I know what you mean. I think both are safe. The one thing I do like about the trailer is that it won't tip over.
