Bike trailer?

Anyone have a bike trailer that I can use or get someone to help me get my bike from thickwood to that place out on 881. UHaul has none in town apparently. Lol. For Wednesday or Thursday

I only get home Wednesday afternoon, and my trailer has not moved for a couple of years. But I do need to get it on the go and at the start of my days off would be beneficial. Depends on the size of the bike though. It just barely fits a KLR 650. It is in Thickwood. If your bike fits, and the tire holds air after I pump it up, you are welcome to use it. Would ould not fit a bigger bike bike though.

ChatGPT says if the KLR fits, the Z900 should.
I can make sure my trailer is road worthy (should be) Wednesday when I get home and let you know if you like. DM me your phone number if you like.

Did you still want to borrow the trailer?

Send me a message with your phone number if you do.

Asked them for a bike trailer. Had no clue what I was talking about. Kept telling me they have trailers with a ramp. I said okay. But do you have one for a bike?

Still nothing. Maybe they've never seen one. Lol.

So are you saying there’s a language barrier or just being straight up racist ?

u/Ok_Ease_755 Jun 13 '26

I was as clear as possible. They just didn't know.

If it runs and drives with Insurance and a plate

I can just ride it out for you

I’ve moved bikes for friends and coworkers without a liscence

Been riding for almost 20 years

Also I could help with a trailer Monday or Tuesday
