Chill folks. Does it matter?

To answer the original question. I've seen pictures of bikes transported
via motorbike sidecar or trailer in the 50s, but I've not seen anything
recently that would let you transport a bike on a motorbike.

I'll tell you in a few hours. 😉

Anyway, when I visited MBMB (http://www.mbmb.co.uk/) in Mont Blanc, they had
a photo of someone who had ridden his motorcycle there with his mountain
bike and gear in tow. Can't see a photo on their site though. Maybe they can
help you by emailing them?

p.s. the lottery numbers for tonight are?

way.

I have been looking into Building/buying a Trailer to Fit my Cycle onto With
the wheels deattached.
WHY I hear you cry well the thing is I want this trailer to then attach to a
motorbike.
A motorbike is my only means of powered transportation and therefor I have
great difficulty getting my Cycle out anywhere outside riding distance.

I figure someone must have done this before or someone may have experiance
in building Trailers for motorbikes.

Please HELP

Yes I have looked and when I say trailers for motorbikes I mean
trailers to be pulled by motor bikes I have only ever SEEN one of
these and there are very few websites so It cant be that huge a
Industry.

Quite common in Germany (mostly single wheeled and pulled by Gold
Wings). Don't know whether they're legal in the UK, and I've never seen
one adapted to carry a bicycle, although it clearly wouldn't be
impossible. I've seen a bicycle on a bicycle-towed trailer (a friend in
Edinburgh many years ago used to take his track-bike to the velodrome
thus).

Why is your message dated 10/3 at 11.35pm when it is 20.20 on the 9th?

Your clock may be right but set to PM instead of AM, and the date is
wrong. Use an ntp server to get a reasonably accurate time.

Google using "Motorcycle Trailers"

Loads of links - mostly in the States, but there are lots of companies
making them!

And you posted that at 00:21 on March 10th.

I'm replying at 20:51 on March 9th. My clock is right;
yours is deeply screwed and would benefit from fixing.
As it stands, you live in Interesting Times.

Certainly legal, although they are limited in width (1m I think), and
length. Should be large enough to carry a bike and some kit.

Wouldn't motorcycle group maybe be more useful here. Cycle carrying
trailers are probably pretty uncommon, but you do get luggage trailers
etc. I'm sure someone there could point you in the right direction.

I really hope he ventures into uk.rec.motorcycling. They'll hang him out to
dry with his clock and his responses!
