Bike Trailer — Fan Of… #126

·

Hi All 👋 Feel free to join in this weekly challenge whenever you find yourself thinking “I’m a fan of…” (see below for how-to).

This week’s Fan Of.. is our new bike trailer for towing with our e-bikes.

Bike trailer

Although actually sold as a pet carrier, we use it for hauling stuff to the local recycling/refuse centre, as well as going shopping. This carrier has a steel frame, quick-release wheels, a folding tow arm & folds flat for easy storage. It’s rated to carry 30kg altogether which makes it ideal for shopping trips. The towing bracket connects simply to a towing hook that is bolted to the rear axle of the bike; there is also a safety strap that attaches separately to the frame should the towing hook failWe got a second towing hook so the trailer can be hitched to either of the bikes. The following gallery is of a day when we took a dead microwave & other bits & pieces to the refuse centre, visited a local DIY centre to pick up new jigsaw, & then went on to run errands around town with 4 different stops, all in the pouring rain? everything went into the trailer

These next shots were of a different day when we went to the local supermarket to do our monthly shopping.

    Brilliant post, Sweetie! I have to say, as birthday voucher spends go, this has to be one of my favourites. I can’t wait until we get the flatbed one! Campingholidays here we come

        Would that be a double or single bed?

Great to hear your thoughts!
