    Default Securing Freedom Trailer

    We are concerned about our trailer being stolen when traveling and when it is disconnected from the Spyder and possibly left in a hotel parking lot not necessarily next to anything it can be attached to. Any suggestions on a solution that might prevent someone from just rolling it onto a trailer and taking it away?

    Bring it into the room with you...
    (You should be able to carry it through the doors...)

    Otherwise: it's time to invest in some REALLY good locks and cables.
    don't unhook it from the bike: lock the coupler down tight to the hitch, make sure that the hitch can't be unbolted, and then: run a cable through something solid under the trailer, and hook that around something solid!
    Oh! Park where you can actually see the bike also!

    Just get a trailer rider on your insurance policy, at a hotel park it in plain sight and at night attach it to your Spyder.

    If you worry too much about stuff you won't have any fun.

    Seriously get a 12-15' krypton cable, a GOOD padlock and attach it to something. Park it in a lighted area or outside your door.
