Wow Paul....Sounds like a great ride....I'm gonna trike my 93 FLHS in Nov. with a Champion kit...I'm glad to see you even had enuf power for the trailer!!! We are going west next summer on the trike and will be in your area..We are gonna tow a trailer and bring our dog in some sort of carrier that I haven't figured out yet...Don't know that wife and me can handle the tent thing tho.!!.......Your photo gallery is awesome on the trike build and I'm sure I will use it as a reference when I'm doing mine !!!!<br />
Thanks for all the info..Dave

I don't know how big the trailer is but i wonder if you could affix a dog carrier to the top of it?
You would have to get it up out of the exhaust fumes and sound blast?

The old trailer i have i once removed the top and built a stock rack in it with plexiglass windows in it and a plywood top and used my top trailer rails to transport other things on top.
My Blue Heeler cattle dog rode all the way from Newcastle, wyoming to Minneapolis,Minn.
In it.
No dog i have had since would tolerate it so i finally stopped trying.
I have seen dog carriers made for trikes and their might be a thread on here somewhere.

As for the tent thing i opened my fat yap and said i could do it and then i had to convince myself.
I must admit that the camp setup and teardown seemed a heck of alot harder than it once was.
I would do it again but this time i would forgo the army cot thing and take an air mattress and run the inflator pump off my cigarette lighter?
It adds more Hassle to the camp duties but at least i might get a better sleep out of the deal?
Gimme a heads when you head my way ok? It gives a guy alot of comfort knowing he can get some help far from home if he needs it!
