bike trailer

thinking of investing in one of those bike trailers that dismantle for easy storage! does anyone have one or had experience with them? one of the guys at donny at the weekend had one and they look like a good bit of kit.................

Yeah , I borrowed one off a mate. Brilliant ! Take it apart in 5 mins, build it in 10. It pivots on the towhitch bracket to make it easier gettin on and off. Think it's a Bikelug or similar. Not cheap though!!!

looked on ebay and a place in bradford do them for £315! get most of your money back when you sell it on i should imagine.

Would really like to do Donny again mate - it was an awesome track. Might try & slip in to Knockhill Inters on 2nd April

I am thinking again of getting a van for track days but not sure I will do enough to warrant the cost of the van, tax, mot, insurance when renting one can be quite cheap.

No worries, i usually miss june\july as they are expensive, then plan some for aug\sep.

Trying to forward plan some more track days just now

Perhaps start a thread, were you are planning to go, then we can jump in to. (except knockhill )

Id like to do Donnington, then maybe Silverstone on the arena track.

Rockingham is ok, but it has to be the international track, the other versions arnt up to much.

I haven't been to the new snet 300 yet, i will let you know after April.

Cadwell has to have its yearly visit.

Oulton i need to go back there also, hang on i think ive just named most of the uk's tracks, so in closing, i have no idea.

I've made the triop south, think you should make the trip north

Oulton is north.

bloomin addictive all this track day malarky, my mate has just bought one of those trailers and he says its ok, not great but ok.
followed him back from snetterton yesterday (fab day on the R6) and it seemed to look steady enough, saying that i dont think i'd risk putting my blade on it.

I have one of them Motolug trailers.
Buy one.
