older kids and bike rides

how do you go for bike rides with your older DC??? DD has a bike with training wheels, but i want to be able to go on longer bike rides on my bike. i have a trailer now but its just way too heavy for me to pull at this point. i was looking at bike seats but they tend to end at 40lbs...DD is 38lbs and kinda tall.
are there any other options out there that you know of?

Re: older kids and bike rides

What about one of these? It's essentially a regular bike for them, but attached to your bike, making it a tandem bike.

This one has a 75lb limit.


ETA: This bar converts an existing bike to a towed bike, giving you the benefits of the above bike, but also the ability to detach DC's bike, and let them ride on their own (if you go to a park, for example, you can tow them to the park, then let them ride around inside the park)
