Cargo Trailer?   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #7323 of 8030 |
I'm seriously considering pulling my Burley Nomad cargo trailer in
GOBA this year. One reason is that my girlfriend is riding with me
and it will help equalize our abilities, (or even give her an
advantage). And of course, this year the course is pretty flat. But
also I think it might make things easier to not have to look for our
bags, carry our backs, and then return our bags to the truck every
day. We'll be able to ride straight to a good campsite and get to
work. I've never done GOBA but sometimes on TOSRV or OKHT it took a
while to find the right bags, and hauling them to the campsite was
often a pain. Is there anybody here who ever used a trailer or
panniers on GOBA fully loaded? How did it work out for you?

... Luggage trucks are half the fun of GOBA. Get done with your day, find your truck, take your bike and "mark" your campsite. Remember what part of the truck...

Here's a little trick if you decide to put your bags in the truck. Tie a bright colored piece of cloth or put a large piece of tape (fluorescent pink, orange...
