I thought I needed the car to pull a boat...

Funny you should post that....

I needed to move my empty "pull-behind-car" boat trailer about 1 km a few days ago and toyed with the idea of doing it with the bike (because it only weighs about 160 lbs unladen).



But didn't. It's (a) too wide to get onto the bike path , and (b) I don't have a slow moving vehicle sign to attach to it to pull it on the street.

A friend of mine used to use bikes at work trailers for hauling trash for a pedal powered trash collection company.
I have a video that I should figure out how to post of a friend of mine hauling a full size box spring and mattress (he made two trips) on his bicycle, no trailer but used an extra-cycle, a bicycle add on that moves the rear wheel back about 3 feet giving you room for large cargo bags and a large flat cargo deck, a little bigger then a skate board.

If you now add a bike rack to your kayak you'll be unstoppable!

Ha! I've actually seen a picture of something like that: someone bike-towing a canoe to the river, then putting the (folding) bike & towing dolly in the canoe & paddling downriver.
