You got that right. I pitted with some guys from Nashville that had one of those foldup trailers. They said it worked great just to and from the track. Plus it stores out of the way. Might be an idea for behind the car.

I couldn't live without my truck, but DAMN the gas $$$

Yeah that is what I am looking at buying, just a single rail trailer that will store standing up and not take up any room. the fiddy is so small I could put a plywood deck on it and put it to one side of the big bike so I could bring both at once. I already have the attachment to tow for my car, just need the trailer.

I'd also like a trailer. Big enough to haul 2 bikes.

Just grab a standard tiltable trailer for a few hundred bucks and do some work on it. After building the sides, I sunk eyehooks into the metal frame for tiedowns, added a wheelchock, and built my own ramps. All pressure treated wood for weather-durability. It does triple duty for bike hauling, construction stuff hauling, and dump runs.

If I wanted to haul two bikes I would just need another wheelchock and some tiedowns, to reposition stuff.

I like the grip tape on the one ramp. Great idea.

How much for a similar trailer?
