Or the opposite!

Training Wheels?

If I remember right, this was done for an arctic trip. The sidecar was designed so that in case of a breakdown, either or both bikes could pull it. That must be a bear to steer.

Oh no.........i'm sitting looking at hacksaw's pic of his rig, the utility trailer and the royale strapped to it.......i'm thinking..." there is this winter's project".... not just a trailer but also the pooch's car, i'm thinkin' integral water-bowl, hair-collecting filter, rabbit-scented hood ornament, i wonder what else she would want....??? hmmmn....i know that others have done a 2 wheeled version of a pooch carrier-trailer, but any rigs ever done anything like this...?? Yes there would have to be double safety chains to keep us all together, and the harness and tethering would still be necessary.Saw, what's the skinny on that lil' utility frame,,,? Bet Dauntless sells that from one of their trailer lines..?

WalMart, Fred Meyer, Home Depot, Northern tool, Lowe's, Harbor freight and many others sell small utility trailers like this for cheap. ($495.00+-) and another that folds up and stores vertically for a bit more.

I think you got too much time and money on your hands!

Maybe a little more riding and a little less time "tinkering" might be in order. 🙂

Thanks for the input.
I'm somewhat satisfied with the 40K a year on average I ride.
My outfit, Widder electrics and a bit of craziness has me riding year round here in Nebraska.
My 9 year old Son with Cerebral Palsy spends about 8K a year with me.
So I'll keep my 'balance' with "tinkering" and riding.
Y'all Ride Safe Out There Ya Hear,
Hacksaw
