Is that an off the shelf trailer or a home made option.

I could do with something to transport the tent and bits when on a long run with the mrs.

Most of the boxed options are bloody expensive and I'm rapidly running out of space in the garage and that good.

Graham,

Glad you pointed out the tank box otherwise might not have noticed :whistle: .

Whilst on that subject two questions (a) how did you secure it in place? and (b) how do you prevent your private personal equipment from getting damaged from the lower rear part of said box especially given the terrain you find yourself navigating?

BTW enjoyed your In Search of Greener Grass book thank you muchly.

Paul :)

Well Paul, it was held in place by those snap clips that you get on back packs 2 at the front and one at the back. so easy to remover for filling up. It cleared everything and when I was riding I didnt notice it. I looks so cumbersome in the photo like a hippo on land but from the riders position on the road it was fully functional for fast camera access and camera security and protection, and I couldn't feel it or see it. Everyone dis'es it but no one but me has experienced it and its not as it appears. Only I will ever know that though.

Have to take your work for it mate. Looks slightly perilous to me. If you can't see or feel it and it gives good protection for you camera then you are doing alright.

It is a tremendous pain in the bum stopping to take photos...
And now, Harry, let us step out into the night and pursue that flighty temptress, adventure.
