You still dreaming frosties?
I had a dave cooper trailer, collapsible one which i towed the boxeye on with my little 3 cylinder skoda fabia.....anyway i know you dont want a trailer but i didnt use mine much, was galvanised, mainly sat in the shed or under the lean to.......rust was coming through when i flogged it.
Ive got my sprinter now (medium wheelbase) & i was dreaming about a bike in the back widthways behind the bulkhead but its surprising how long bikes actually are i couldnt even fit the chopped trx in that way.
Its nuts how heavy that light bikes suddenly seem when trying to get them on trailers and up ramps etc and then strapping them down is a pain in the tits also and then you are always in the mirrors worrying its about to fall off it totally spoils the fun.
I dunno....im with you with the dream but i think the reality is that its a pita and spoils any dreamt fun.
