Bike Trailer Blog:

This section of our blog focus's on all things bike cargo trailer. Bike cargo trailers are amazing tools for getting more out of a bicycle. From bike touring, to commuting and errands, to trail work, bike cargo trailers are the perfect tool for hauling stuff by bike. Not only do we cover bike cargo trailers, we also blog about cargo bikes and related topics like Xtracycle kits. The topic of bike child trailers and trailer-cycles is covered at the Family Cycling section.

Submit Your Bike Trailer Photos

Here at the Bike Trailer Blog we are going in a new direction, driven by your photos and stories of your bike trailers and experiences. We greatly encourage user feed back from products purchased from our sites, Bike Trailer Shop, Bike Bag Shop and Bike Kid Shop. We are also very interested in any cool DIY bike trailers or bike trailer accessory setups that someone has designed on their own. This blog is about sharing the fun and creativity of customizing and using your own bike trailer and to develop a forum to help spread ideas and resources.

Sophie’s First Ride In A Bike Dog Trailer

Sophie sure looks like she is having fun on her first bike ride. From that excited look on her face, I’m guessing she gets quite excited when the bike dog trailer comes out.

“This was Sophie’s first bike ride. She didn’t like it at first but has now grown to love it. We just upgraded to a Burley Rover but don’t have photos yet. Many fun rides coming this summer!”

Sophie is riding in a Doggy Ride Trailer, though it sounds like her new ride is a Burley Rover. The Burley Rover while no longer available is basically a simplified version of the Burley Tailwagon which by the way is still available at the BikeTrailerShop.com.

Bob’s DIY Bike Trailer Solutions Part 2

Our friend Bob sent us some more images of a bike dog trailer that he has been working on. Previously Bob had sent us some images of his DIY bike cargo trailers. Here’s what Bob has to say about his latest creation.

“This is my latest completed trailer with it’s happy passenger Quincy. This lady wanted a cargo hauler and something to haul her dog with. With this particular box, the lid snaps off very easily so the trailer becomes a dog hauler. She made a nice cushion for the bottom and the dog wears a little harness with 2 short leads so he can’t jump out of the trailer.”

In my estimation, Bob’s design looks solid, lightweight and offers some excellent functionality. Keep up the good work, Bob and we look forward to seeing your next DIY Bike Trailer.
