Bikes: Surly LHTD with a YAK trailer. I may have to ditch the trailer and go to panniers but I'll give it a try and see what happens.

That's EXACTLY why I've taken up cycling. Next year I finally quit working at almost 72. Most people who retire take up the recliner full time and have serious health issues in three to five years. I'd rather get run over by a truck out on the highway than to die laying in a hospital bed wearing a paper diaper.
