does anybody know where to rent a sidecar in Florida?
Check with USCA Florida State Rep Richard McClure: http://www.sidecar.com/Maps/florida.htm
I can't wait to hear the outcome of this one! Does anyone anywhere rent sidecar rigs?

I'm interested in the answer to this also. Now knowing the differences in handling between "riding" without a sidecar and "driving" with a sidecar..I could envision all kinds liability issues.
Remember a statement that Roger Spalding made with I picked up my Spalding Side rig. He told my GF, who has NEVER ridden a motorcycle, that it would be easier to teach her how to handle a sidecar rig vs me, who has ridden for over 50 years.

Hey Texan,
I can't stay away from this one.
A few years ago I was passing through customs returning from Europe and an airline pilot was in front of me. When the customs officer asked the pilot "Country of origin"? the pilot responded "Texas".

Oh, Ditch, LoL!!! I've stated several times, crossing over into Canada, when ask citizenship I'd say TEXAN. Most of the time I got a smile...man, crossed over at Toronto one day, said TEXAN and I thought she was going to give me free room and board for a few months. !!!
You have to remember that Texas was a Republic.

Thanks for the pass through Steve but I am like Jim and have been watching this one. I do not know of anyone renting sidecar rigs but that does not say there is not some people doing it. if you tell me what part of Fla you are going and when I will do some checking.
Connie and I are renting a sidecar rig in New Zealand for a 5 week trip this March. Not real easy to find, but hopefully worth it.
I can't afford New Zeeland, but I still want to know who and where rents sidecars. I would love to find one in Montana or Maine. Living in south Florida, it is a long hike to those two states. I have family in Montana and LL Bean in Maine. Need to see both. On the cheap. Trailering is a possibility, but I don't have a trailer. Anyone with good advice on a hack trailer?

There is a place in South Africa that we ran across on the net that rents Chang Jiang sidecar rigs. I do not have the link though.
Here is a link to one in China that rents sidecar rigs:

One more sidecar rental overseas, and definitely closer than New Zealand or South Africa !.

I realize New Zealand is a ways away. However, I have had luck finding sidecar rentals the times I have tried. What I have done is compose a short message and copy it. Then I paste to messages to local forums, local tour operators, and local bike shops (all pretty easy to locate vis the internet...google, etc). Sorta like this thread.
