Kayak trailer!
Bringing together two nonmotorized modes: bicycling by land, and kayaking by sea. Bicycle Alliance staffer Mark Canizaro, Chris King (Mr. Bypedal) and I collectively bought this beautiful semi-custom seakayak trailer made by Tony of Tony's Trailers in Victoria (on Vancouver Island). Tony was the last-place finisher in the Tour de France 50 years ago, and makes an excellent, superbly thought-through kayak trailer, besides being a really nice guy. As Mark and I assembled and test-rode it, we were impressed by the little, thoughtful features. And it rides great! Tracks amazingly smoothly, circles fairly tight (goes easily around Seattle's ubiquitous mini-circles, and feels only modestly heavy with a boat on it! See more fun photos here and here. Bringing together two peacable, local, noiseless, mitochondrial-combustion-engine activities into one seamless pair.
sounds like you are having good adventure stuff. I am in a small place called singapore. Kayaking is relatively unknown here. I envy you.
