Joshua

with an automobile trailer, the weight should be something
like 60% on the lounge/towing vehicle and the balance
supported by the trailer. I can't see why that rule of thumb
would work for a bicycle. however it seems your bigger
problem was not tying the load securely or possibly
overloading the trailer...

Sorry I only read English...care to translate this kind Sir?
