I came back across town as fast as I could muster with the trailer on, but it was 7pm by the time I got to Church and didn't fancy trying to find the Mass pack, so I soldiered on toward home... Kinda bummed I missed the last one of the year, but there'll be more.

Riding across the city with the trailer on this time was a little more iffy, had a close (well, close enough with my precious behind me) buzz early on that set me on edge a little bit. Totally glad I had the tailwind with us though because going east tonight sucked the life right out of my legs at points, and I was riding light! Road bike + trailer won all prizes thankfully. I stuck to my 52/19 gear (~73GI vs ~72 on my FG build) and trundled away, I wonder what riding fixed will be like with a trailer on the back... scary?
