    Nice bro. I'm in the Pacific Northwest south Seattle area. I ride with my little pomchi named Lilly which means innocent one and we are making a trailer like yours. I play guitar too. Me and you, we are the same. And yes glass and nails piss me off too. I hate gas wagons. 😂 Ride safe my friend.

    Yo alexx u gave me a lot of inspection 2 build my own Matilda and hit the road. I built a 80cc occ chopper with electric start out of a schwinn stingray. Its got good power and speed so I should be able 2 pull Matilda like she's not even there so I'm gonna build my Matilda 2 times the size. I need it 2 sleep 3 people and a cat so I've got my work cut out 4 me lol thank you 4 the inspiration and I really hope 2 see you come back with new videos after this winter and maybe you might come 2 the United States and come across us on the road.

    Regarding the cost of dogs, regardless of type, dog owners impose a higher cost than a child, on average. I imagine one large undersupervised dog could make up a dozen good dog owners

    They don't trust people to pick up the dog poop. Most 5 year olds don't poop in the yard.

  • @GrizAdams111
    @GrizAdams111 3 роки тому +1

    If I had to guess it's because a lot of dog owners are inconsiderate and let their dogs bark endlessly and don't clean up after them.

Shame about the bloody eejots on the roads and I agree about the shocking charges for dogs. We will love seeing where you end up next, and so glad we met you both! Twice! Happy and safe travels!

    • @thelast344
      @thelast344 4 роки тому +1

      You don't want to use a road bike to pull heavy trailers. You need wide tires 2 inches is ideal. You need traction when braking a heavy load. I did it for a while with 700c x 43mm and it sucked. I ate up tires every 400 miles and got no speed improvement because a heavy trailer does that, if anything I didn't have as good of speed because of reduced traction. The best bicycles I've found for hauling trailers are cruisers. No single speed though. I've gotten 1 mph higher average speed using cruisers over anything else. Best towing bicycle I've used so far is the specialized roll sport. But you will need a stronger back wheel and upgraded brakes. Avid bb7 and 203mm rotors.
