19 Notes:
This was my first experiment in the Motorcycle Trailer Arena. It's an 320lb (empty) monster of a trailer. Hauls a lot of stuff, and I know that it is back there when I am towing it. Since the last couple iterations of the whiskey trailer, I have not hauled it much.
Makes for a great golf-cart trailer when we are camping too, (next year's wish list).
That might make for a great What Else Can You Do With a Trailer article. Anyways,
Ride safe,

Challenge Summary:
My 60 day challenge: analyze 60 cargo trailers and write a description of who this trailer would be best suited for. To be clear: this is an unsolicited breakdown of some interesting trailers that I have seen and photographed at bike rally's, pictures sent to me for contests, or across the web. It is a writing experiment for me. If you would like to follow along, help, or be a critic in any way shape or form, please do. Also, any additional information that you would like to send regarding your trailer would be awesome. This is Day 1. See you on the other side. Today is day 60, the other side. Great experiment, I have got nothing but positive feedback and results from this challenge and recommend it to anyone who wants to intentionally form a writing habit.
