I'm was hoping to avoid using a trailer, but it sounds like there's no way around it. The MUP in our neighborhood has gates that are a little difficult to get through with a trailer. A solo trailer might be easier though, so that's a possibility. Also, I was hoping to keep the option of taking the bike on the light rail if she has mechanical trouble or something. I suppose she could always lock the bike and trailer at the station and ride the light rail home if she had to. Thanks for all the input!
