When we first made plans to go cycling with Luke, our biggest worry was the summer heat.
Luke’s Chariot Cougar 1 trailer has a fair amount of ventilation but some light does come through the tinted windows on the side.
We wanted the option to have Luke in total shade on very hot and sunny days.
Thanks to the wonders of the internet, we had a conversation with another mum, Christine. She’s written a very helpful article about bike touring with a baby, and immediately had our solution: a homemade sun shade.
