Herb In Texas Posted January 7, 2009 #1 Posted January 7, 2009 I hauled a feral Hog to the locker plant this morning behind my bike. I was curious as to what oddities ya'll have hauled. I sure did get some looks. I got quite a few the other day when I hauled a complete oak desk. Guess a trailer behind a bike is not an every day thing here in the DFW area. I may use my truck again when diesel drops to a buck a gallon again.
Eck Posted January 7, 2009 #2 Posted January 7, 2009 a set of golf clubs in a golf bag, a cooler and two new Avon tires are the only 3 things I ever hauled on my bike..
pegscraper Posted January 7, 2009 #3 Posted January 7, 2009 Do things hauled ON the bike count? I carried this drinking fountain about 20 miles over to a friend's house. This had to have gotten some looks, but I didn't pay any attention to whether people were gawking at me or not.
Ponch Posted January 7, 2009 #4 Posted January 7, 2009 ...your back. Hope you didn't have to stop fast.

Kregerdoodle Posted January 7, 2009 #8 Posted January 7, 2009 My wife held onto my new Condor wheel lock about 45lbs and a good sized box, it had me all up on the tank and stopping was not a good thing, we rode down the sea wall in Galveston to Jamaica Beach like that...
Herb In Texas Posted January 7, 2009 Author #9 Posted January 7, 2009 I tried dragging my MIL behind the scoot.....the darn rope broke. MIL: Do I read Mother In Law? If she's like one I HAD be glad the rope broke!

bikenut Posted January 8, 2009 #11 Posted January 8, 2009 My brother-law pulled a 14 foot boat with 25 hp motor on a trailer for 50 miles to get it home . He had no problems at all. He just started to stop way before he had to. bikenut:missingtooth:
Joopster55 Posted January 8, 2009 #12 Posted January 8, 2009 1st Gens. I never hauled them, but they were hauling a** just to keep up to a 2nd Gen.

He just started to stop way before he had to. bikenut:missingtooth: Good info, I have been considering that very thing. 14ft Jon boatand trolling motor. Was not sure of LIFT of the wind under the boat. As a pickup would block the wind but a bike would allow the air to get under the boat and cause handling trouble. Guess I better go buy a boat and trailer!!

bryan52577 Posted January 8, 2009 #16 Posted January 8, 2009 I got behind on my yard this past summer and borrowd a Dixson 44 inch rider mower. Since my car does not have a hitch I took the bike. Worked fine but took it slow anyway.

greg_in_london Posted January 8, 2009 #19 Posted January 8, 2009 I've towed bikes and sidecars behind a bike and sidecar a few times, see this thread: http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=29741 I've also towed my girlfriend's three wheeler Reliant Rialto before - but you probably haven't heard of those over there.

flb_78 Posted January 9, 2009 #21 Posted January 9, 2009 I pulled a dune buggy built on a truck frame across the yard once. I pulled home a bench seat for my old Buick on my trailer.
