    Default New way to transport my Kayak

    Took the Kayak to Saddle Creek today for the first time using the Spyder. Two pictures. The old way and the new way.

    And a LOT more fun. Cages are great when it gets really cold (below 20*F), it's icy/snowy/rainy or you need to haul something that just won't fit on a bike (I had to carry a few 20' pieces of PVC across town the other day. Even if I had a trailer, I just couldn't see that happening w/the RT.)

    HAGO!

    This is a nice looking setup but I got a few of questions about it.

    1. What is the model of the trailer or is it DIY.

    2. What is the weight being applied to the hitch?

    3. Is that a mount for a trolling motor?

    Thanks in advance for the info.

    The trailer is a Jet Ski trailer.
    21 pounds of tongue weight.
    Yes, that is a mount for a trolling motor.
    The trailer is also setup to carry my Dual Sport as well. It is a DRZ 400. IMG_4145.jpg

    Gotta admit that is extremely clever. Wouldn't mind doing the same thing except that our Spyders are here in Texas and our kayaks are in Maine!

    Doesn't that negate all the benefits of exercise ?

    Has anybody ever trailered their bicycles with a Spyder? We have two eBikes that weigh about 60lbs each that we want to pull to the trailhead.

    The new way not only looks better, but a whole lot more fun as well. An unbeatable combination.

    I haven't, but 120 pounds sounds like a pretty easy pull.
