Re: [Paddlewise] Bicycle Towing Rig

He uses a trike. He's had some close calls on the highway on curves. We have 
a trail system in Victoria/Saanich/Sooke he uses a lot.I used it today to 
avoid traffic in the snow on my bike.

The easiest bike trailer for a minimalist uses a tow arm attached to the bow 
and wheels lashed on to the hull. Too simple for me. :-)

Well, call me Cool Toe Luke.

And hey, I arranged with a meteorologist to send snow down to Duane and Mark 
as they get way to smug down there.
