I'm sat weighing gear as I type to load up the Gear Weenie app, I'd not bother if I had to pull that!

Could make for an interesting competition though, everyone hauling one of those long distance off road. :twisted:

You could easily sleep two in there so the race format is this:
Teams of two, on a tandem, towing a "midget bushtrekker", long distance, off road, point to point staying at registered caravan and camping club sites.
Any other rules that people think should apply?

4 hours time bonus for each caravan camping club site that throws you off the site after they discover you have been using their washing machine facilities!

You can say that again
That fact that someone sat down to design it in the first place is beyond belief, never mind actually making one and thinking, "I reckon these'd sell at $900 a pop..."

Not only that but they will also have persuaded some other idiot or idiots that it is a good idea and got them to invest money in the production of said item. :?
I wonder if any of them actually loaded the thing up and tried cycling with it!
