Hey, how is that Harbor Freight trailer working out for you and do you think it would haul two bikes? I can get it for about $200 right now on sale!

Works great, thats a brand new one I just bought my olne lasted about 6 yrs and is prlly still good. I have mine set up so I can tow one or 2 bikes. 2 takes a little doing but can be done. I have done it numerous times and have seen it at the track plenty of times.

Marko we didnt take any other pics, the guy who took pics at the track will have em on his site tomorrow so I will put up a few proofs and may buy a few if I se some I like.

HF trailers are good. Its worth it to buy the trailer, then replace the wheel bearings which are typically the HF trailer weak spot.

I started to get one. Then I got a better idea. I contacted the local high school shop teacher. I told him what I wanted, and he got the kids in his class to build it. Win. Win. I pick it up on Friday. All I have to pay is materials. It has 15" wheels and a 3500lb axle. I had the wheels put further back so that I would have more tongue weight when loaded. They also made it with a ramp that stows under the trailer. I'm stoked about it. There will be a full thread to follow

Yep, and if you're in the HF club, they send you and ad that has it listed at $259. I called the store and they'll let me use the 20% coupon as well... Tada!

Are y'all going to be back at NJMP July 3-5? I doubt I'd have a bike to ride but I should be in DC that week and it'd be cool to come visit.
