Temporary Bicycle Trailer

Step 8Use!

Use!
I bought some wood. I attached it to the trailer using elastic cords again. You could use duct tape too, I guess.

My impressions with it are pretty good. Sometimes it's hard making turns, sometimes the trailer rocks back and forth wildly. Sometimes it bumps into me (because it's only secured with a cord), once it got blown onto it's back by the wind.

Easy solution: Put something heavy in it. It'll carry about 40 kilograms (90 pounds), I think. I, being sixteen, could sit in it. So could my little brother (11). A toddler is perfect, if you have one.

Hard solution: Attach it with a stick, or a rod, or a fancy trailer-attach-thing. Then you need some kind of rotating thing on the back of your bike to go through turns. This one looks very nice.
