Old man's bike

[Straight Shooter]

My cycling days are similar to yours MB way way back ....BUT i did see a guy using a trailer last summer ...looked like it was well made tubular pipe frame two wheels ,this was attached just under the saddle via one long curved tube to miss the rear wheel ...hook and eyelet type of hookup ...the frame held a loading tray ....i would say this was W 18" L 24" H about 18" this had a lid hinged like a fight case ...twist key lift and then slide out of the hinges to remove....he was stopped having a coffee , he have loads of stuff in there , i thought that was quite neat ....the wheels were around 12" ....i have also seen canvas type carts for holding a child for towing behind cycles.
