  1. I remember sometime in the last few months seeing an advert in a magazine for a modular trailer
    (single base, multiple possible tops). One of the modules was designed for towing dogs. Can
    anyone tell me off the top of their head what make the trailer might have been, or whether it has
    a website?

    Otherwise, what trailers are good for dogs?

    The reason I ask is that the woman camped next to me at the CTC Birthday Rides wanted a trailer for
    her dog, so I mentioned the modular trailer that I'd seen and said I'd look it up.

    (She's also thinking of getting a bent, due to back problems. So I recommended making sure she gets
    a bent and trailer that are compatible. She had a ride on my Street Machine, but I think she'll be
    better of with a trike).

    Not sure of the name or URL, but it was sold in the Bike-Gear catalogue that came with Cycling+ a
    few issues ago, if that helps.

    Orbit sell the 'Bluebird' range - this sounds like it.

    The Orbit site itself kept crashing Opera

    It certainly does, thanks. I found the Catalogue and found the Blue Bird trailer system (which turns
    out to be made by Orbit, thanks Steve and Chris too).

    The manufacturer's site for the trailer is orbit-cycles.co.uktrailers.shtml so
    I'll forward that and the Gearshift link.
