  1. Does anyone know where to purchase a TRAILER-type bike attachment to tow a surfboard? I don't want to make one, but I can't find any place where I can buy one. Do they exist?

    I've seen guys carrying their kayaks on Extracycles:

    Basically a way to convert your bicycle into an extra-long
    cargo bike.

    A good listing of trailers and cargo bikes can be found

    On my rides down West Cliff in Santa Cruz, California, i would see the surfers on 41 st Ave at Pleasure Point have a device that would point their boards at a 45 degree angle up and in the direction of ones back. Fastened with thick Pipe foam the board sat there sandwiched between two tubes of aluminum.
    Now i cant tell you if these are hand made or store bought but tehre were sure lot of them that i saw so somebody has to be making them.
