I've been doing most of my riding with 25-30kg of trailer plus kid and associated junk recently. In quite a hilly area (Derbyshire - eg.ride I just did to the local swimming pool was 20km with 450m of ascent).
From a training point of view, is this riding going to be more or less useful than normal riding? Obviously i'll get big leg muscles pulling all this weight, and it makes my road bike feel like it weighs nothing, but other than that I wonder if there's any training argument for or against loaded training? Anyone have any idea?
Ps. Trailer is a croozer, and it is brilliant, daughter (8 month old) appears to find it pretty comfy, spends most of her time in it asleep.
