I do it anyway. I couldn't without the gears, the change of clothes, etc.

The OP isn't stupid, but he's ignorant.
130 pounds of children. How much do they weigh? Double digit grade to Wall Street? Is that on one of the bridges? I didn't thinkm they were that steep.

What do you fit through the apt door to haul 130 pounds of children, plus presumably your work clothing and whatever else you take to Wall Street? Where do you park your child carrier at your Wall Street location? Are you one of those guys with a corner office and lots of room and the clout to bring your bike and trailer inside your own Wall Street office? I am impressed. How many of your Wall Street partners also bring their bikes in from the suburbs, distant locations or anywhere else?
