OK cut to the chase.
"Dadcore"
Where parenthood hits hardcore (biking that is before some of the regulars get perturbed). And just to be clear Dadcore is not restricted to men - mumcore just sounds wrong.
Members of said niche display the normal STW healthy interest in things two-wheeled, but with the added question "will it tow a trailer, how do you get a child seat on that?"
You know, 6 inch travel full suss bike, but what's the performance like once you have toddler on it?
Brands which indicate possible Dadcore would include LOCT, Co-pilot, Islabike etc - but only in the right circumstances. A Co-pilot on a hybrid is not dadcore; but a Co-pilot on an Inbred...
There's a few of us out there I'm thinking
Just bought our three year old his first Camelbak today. After we'd been round Dixon's Hollow and bits of the red route.
Not niche at all, saw millions of trailers and rear seats at Swinley today. Mostly fitted to £200 and below bikes.
Have been looking at options for our twins and London Cycling Campaign have offered my £500 worth of twin trailer on long term loan, for free.
is this classed as dadcore?

Not on the single track you didn't - or am I wrong
Edit
Sorry Rich - I would say you're in. Is that a SS too? Well in.
Urghhh, Nothing I hate more than having track clogged up with encouraging parents with slow kids.
"saw millions of trailers and rear seats"
I've told you a million times: don't exaggerate!
You can get a two seater chariot trailer round most of GT red and the easier freeride park is good.
My old dadcore bike...

Now that's what I'm talking about
