Safe-T

Make sure you REALLY tighten the quick release axel. My rear wheel came out of the drop outs from the trailer pushing back on the bike over a few bumps and hills and I wiped out (bike tipped over). However... I had attached the tow arm properly so the safety strap kept the trailer from rolling away, and although I was on the ground the trailer was totally upright - all as it should be. My 2.5 year old thought it was hilarious.

Necro-response, but I would wonder if they horizontal dropouts on a track bike. If it wasn't I'd be quite surprised given the fixed position dropouts or the ones that angle forward at about 45 degrees.

I'm glad to hear you are all right! But I would also caution other users to be sure to use the included LONGER quick-release axle, as it has more threads to grab and hold to keep it tight.
