Trailer for two people?

After reading the what appear to be endless debates between trailer and panniers I have decided to go for the Burley Nomad. Based on people's experience does this provide enough room for 2 people (we are planning on doing camping touring from SF to LA). I figure we'll both have to have handlebar bags and maybe the other one not pulling the trailer have a small bag on the back.

thanks,
Dan

Hey Dan: I went on a tour this summer with a Burley Flatbed that carried the gear for 2. The other rider used a rear bag(not pannier) for his personel stuff. I was able to carry all of the gear easily with room to spare. We only went for a few days but the increase in gear for extended trips will only be more food and some extra clothes. It wasn't too heavy and allows you to swap the trailer. I think it's the way to go. Charlie
