True, and a lesson I should learn. It's also true on my bike, though trips on my bike tend to be a bit faster, though the minute or two I save on my 15 minute commute hardly matters.

I've also found them to be wobbly...
Really? I find them rock solid, both in a good way and a bad way. I describe it as riding a Sherman tank in first gear. I haven't taken one over a bridge yet though. In those cases, I'm always on my bike.
