Bike transport

[OreoGaborio]

So uh... i've got a race bike, but I haven't exactly figured out how i'm getting it to & from the track through the season.

Anyone able to help me out w/ this little predicament? I'll chip in for my fair share of gas money & of course a little extra for your time (and storage if that makes things more convenient)

[Awesome]

How much are you offering? I don't know how many bikes I have in my truck yet. Guessing mine and nazo's and picking up Jeff's with the trailer in NH.

just get(rent/buy) a little trailer. its just an EX, the trailer doesnt have to be all enclosed. just to get the job done

Pete,

Harbor freight has one right up your alley.

Harbor Freight trailer

It tows very well and quite compact for storage.

[OreoGaborio]

I have storage for a bike but not for a trailer... Not to mention my car is also in pretty rough shape as well as WAY out of inspection. I don't even know if it would pass.

Jay, I don't have much to offer... I'd offer exactly what i'd ask for if our positions were reversed, which is an equal share of the gas expenses and some booze for the weekend.... perhaps the purchase of a community case of corona (or equivilant)... and limes... god help you if you forget the limes.

Sell you POS car and buy a POS truck

[OreoGaborio]

yeah, that's the ultimate plan... I'd like a small pick-up like what Gary's got.

[s a x m a n]

what do you have for a car?

did you see how well my hyundai did for the VIR trip with two bikes and all that shit in the back seat and trunk?

[OreoGaborio]

it's an '87 bmw 325... it's got enough juice to pull it w/o a doubt, but it's not exactly in the best condition right now.

If i were to fix it up & use it i'd have to put a good amount of money into it.

know what... fukit... I'm gonna look into exactly how much it'd cost, maybe I can get it ready by the second race weekend.

Rather than dump $$$ into a old BMW.. to tow... I'd look at getting a $1500 - 2,000 pickup truck.

Tons of old Toyota's and shit that would do nicely for hauling a single bike.

any 2wd 4 banger will be good for what you need....almost all of them are good running and reliable...even the ford and chevy's...

Get yourself over to teh auto-zone, get some a dem PIAA lights, and you're "road legal" again. Ride to track. Hey, ya do it for trackdays

[13]

Pete! Did you see the hunk of shit I used to get my bike to the track days last year(and hopefully this year as well)? Cheapo subie wagon($1000), rent a uhaul motorbike trailer($15-$20 a day) and you'll be all set.

[Hardcore]

Pete, you douchebag--let me know what yer gonna do, I might be able to fit you + huckleberry's bikes in my truck + still fit all my bikes in the trailer!

God forbid something happens to Jim, eh?

What would you do then?!!!!!!

[OreoGaborio]

Thanks Chad (And Jim ), that'd be pretty kickass. I may have to take ya up on that offer till i find some other means of getting it up there myself.

[highsider]

I used to haveone of those catalog ordered bike trailers - cost about $400 ready to go, and folds in half when you're done with it. One of those would do the trick.

Alternatively, find a cheap minivan. Then, you can put your bike in the back on the weekend, and live in it all week!

[Awesome]

When Jeff and Naz figure out their plan I'll know if I have room. I could easily pull a trailer but jeff keeps his in NH. Getting three bikes there to pick it up would be trickay.

[x2468]

does anyone ever drive down to daytona in the winter and trailor other peoples bikes like this?

as for you shitbrick--I don't have to use Jim's trailer, I have a trailor to fit 2/3 bikes--how the fuck ya think we got the bikes to the track before Jim got his trailer--by fuckin magic!!!
it's a lot more economical + safer to use 1 truck with 1 trailer when we come from the same town!! you useless meatheaded
fuckstick faggotass pussy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[OreoGaborio]

Oh, you didn't get the memo? It's Jim's trailer and he was nice enough to send me a PM offering me transportation to NHIS

He would then be exposed for the fat, useless, piece of shit leech that he really is. I think everyone is slowly starting to figure that out though.

Don't listen to the fat, fuck'n douche bag Pete. We'll get your bike to the track.

[bigred875]

awww you guys are so cute


highsider - those trailers are now under 300...
