trike. Some of you may recall previous pedal frolics by our cycling
group HPVOoO (http://hpv.tricolour.net). For the first one we moved
kitchen appliances, and for the second one we moved entire house
contents (it was only four blocks, but I did get to play tuba while
riding!).

Couldn't you just hook up the house and use a super, super granny gear?
Now THAT would be a sight.

Get the house onto a wheeled platform and we'd probably try it! 😉
Not only have we moved appliances, the big trailer was originally
built to carry a Hammond organ, its big Leslie speaker cabinet, plus
the organist for a parade (reported here a few years back):

My cargo trike is built along the lines of the "SUV" by Organic
Engines. They have a photo of a fellow towing a boat with his:
