Great for dropping off the rickshaw someplace, or dropping off or picking up a bike from the bike shop for repair:<br />http://www.rickshawseason.com/haul-bicycle-rickshaw/Brockhttp://www.tvcycle.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-198843833237575122.post-16395579443683381842011-01-11T12:52:52.539-07:002011-01-11T12:52:52.539-07:00Scott, I had the same thought.

(Assuming the passenger weighs more than 25 lbs.)<br /><br />I've long lusted after a UNI-GO trailer for my motorsickle. In theory, it's like a BOB - one wheel and so its influence on handling, tracking, etc., are minimal. BUT - it's $2500! Ouch! (It's a little fiberglass pod. They oughtta make BIG BOB - like a BOB, and you could carry cargo, or attach a waterproof box on it, depending on immediate hauling needs. Or a bike!)Bikeboyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17379272663647894409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-198843833237575122.post-66214714495989187342011-01-11T01:00:12.165-07:002011-01-11T01:00:12.165-07:00It seems like that would raise your center of grav...It seems like that would raise your center of gravity a whole bunch.
