I got to work on the tail section. After a little CAD (Cardboard Assisted Design) work I have created the main and tail bulkheads. I am using 1x2 stringers to tie the bulkheads together.

This is a small start and only took an afternoon to accomplish. I decided on a simple wood structure, well, because it is simple and I have the hand tools to accomplish the work.

I will cut lightning holes in the bulkheads and will be using steel supports to attach the structure to my bike. I am attempting to keep the stock seat in place.
