Maloja Snake

The Engadine Valley may be famous for its crystalline winter light called diamond dust, but cloud porn reaches its animistic apex here atop the Maloja Pass, a road that soars to an elevation of 6,000 feet and connects the valley to Chiavenna, Italy. It's a prime spot for sightings of the dense,…

How does the bike trailer travel with your Cali?

Is that trailer for a pet, child or cargo?

Not too bad. It’s a big old lump but it folds flat and fits in a clean bag. Stows in the back on top of the bags/bedding etc. Wheels just strap the the bike rack. Once you’ve packed it a few times it’s an easy 5 min job.

33kg of bonkers Labrador! It’s a low flat bed so you could put anything in there. It’s a dog specific bit of kit.

We have a Carry Freedom flatbed trailer. A much earlier one of these:

And can securely strap a Pets at Home fabric kennel onto it.

At the Tandem Club rally we took Meg on a 60km ride, hauled behind our triplet, or trotting alongside (trotting about half the time or about a quarter of the distance). But I think she found it uncomfortable as the trailer has no suspension. Does your trailer have suspension?

When I have the time when loading bikes I want to see if I can secure our trailer between the four bikes that we cart around on the rear.

Maybe it’s just the photo, but looks like your pop up roof is skewed off center to the left?

I agree it does, but I’m pleased to say it’s just an optical illusion

The optical illusion maybe the wide angle lens on the camera or mobile used

More like view of my van. Have I just come back from a tour of the Sahara?? No I parked overnight in Lancashire. It took two hours to get the sand off without scratching the paintwork

If mine would look like this I would run away sceaming.
First thing to do is get it washed off. (no carwash offcourse, that would only make it worse)

You haven't to run away but deal with the problem before school kids and adult idiots start writing stuff in the dust. This can really cause paintwork issues that only T-Cut can solve!!

Your right.
And if you want to write something. Do it on the windows.

I drove through Lancashire whilst delivering a brand new black car to a customer in Glasgow, thought damn thing had freckles after the briefest of showers. Was in two minds whether to wash it off, or leave it, what with freckles being quite popular with Scottish people.
