So, in the spirit of living a more active lifestyle, Tracy and I decided to buy the X-Country ski attachment for our Chariot kid carrier. We were pretty psyched up about it until I went into Bert and Mac's to buy one. Once again, evolution got the best of us as the trailers have changed since the one that we now own was originally purchased.
A little background here - I bought the Chariot from a lady that I work with strictly for pulling behind my bike (which it has worked wonderfully for) and lately started using it for running. Now, I'm pretty sure that she bought it from somebody else, and who knows before that.
Fast forward to Bert and Mac's, where I am standing with the trailer and Matt, trying to find the year that this thing was built (1997). I left the trailer with him to see if he could order the parts, but he didn't sound too positive. Following a lead from my baby sister I went home on turned on Google only to find out that the X-Country ski attachment isn't available for our year of trailer. But, I did find this interesting link, which I am planning on putting into action once I get the trailer back from Matt. Any help in modifying these plans will be considered, if you want to add your 2-bits.
By the way, for those of you still reading, thanks to everyone for a wonderful Christmas. The kids are just now accepting the fact that chocolate is not a necessity for every meal and that bedtime is not the time that you get thrown into a bedroom cause you are pitching too big of a fit.
Hope everyone had a safe and happy holiday, and looking forward to hearing every one's plans for 2010.
