Greetings, EZTop (Also in Seakayaker magazine, issue 86 page 29, February 2002 along with the bicycle cart plans previously mentioned here) makes a bicycle hitch for their "trolly". http://goeztop.com/access.html Look at the "additional trolly" and the "ez-top bicycle attachment" links. One trolly (US$399.00) plus one bicycle attachment US$69.95) equals one kayak trailer for a bike. In all fairness this system adapts roof rack components for use as a trailer. I considered this product until reviewing the offerings from Bikes at Work. http://www.bikesatwork.com/products Now I think I'll get an "S" frame or truss frame trailer from them that I can use for all kinds of hauling including my kayaks. These look to be well designed trailers from real bicycle users and it's roughly the same cost as the eztop products. My purpose for commenting is, perhaps with the parts you already have you could reverse engineer the best features of these designs to come up with a unique design that fits your own needs/budget. Also if you get a lead on the Farrington's Chariots I'd like to know.
