Has anyone hooked a bug to a bicycle? If so, what parts did you use? I am trying to build this rig because in a few months I might no longer be in
walking distance of my regular beach (currently 1.5 miles one way walk).WELDNGOD - 19-11-2013 at 03:53 PM
I think we had a discussion about this long ago,might want to do a search. indigo_wolf - 19-11-2013 at 04:03 PM
P.S.:
Make sure to get some air horns and a placard that reads "This rig makes wide turns."
The mud flaps with the silhouette of a naked lady are purely optional. flyhighWNY - 19-11-2013 at 04:20 PM
Crude but it works!
I use a legnth of rope (tow rope) hook to each foot peg and carabiner to bike seat. A knot (close enough to pegs that if front b7ggy wheel runs over
it it stops)to act as a brake if I slow down before buggy. Buggy has never hit the bike and I have plenty of control (it trails nicely). Of course
there are plenty of ways to do it but I used what I had in a hurry and it serves me fine. 10 blocks to ride spot. I do get looks mostly from my Lady

I had skimmed around for ideas before but came up dry. Thanks for the help guys! I will have to rig something up to try out this weekend or next.WELDNGOD - 19-11-2013 at 05:05 PM
As you said "crude ,but it works. "Bladerunner - 19-11-2013 at 05:48 PM
Airen still has the tow bar she made ( in the BikeKiteBuggy thread ) but it would probably be as cheap to make your own as to ship you hers? WELDNGOD - 19-11-2013 at 06:10 PM
You mean Airin ,and that is the thread I was thinking of. Good call BR Demoknight - 20-11-2013 at 07:47 AM
Yeah since it has to cross the border it probably would be more expensive shipping than if I just rig one up with PVC.
