Hey. New member. G'day.
I have been a silly boy and been banished to the world of 'Bikes only',. As someone who had already discovered the joys of cycling it's not too big a deal but it does limit my getting away from it all. I like to kayak and without the Ute I haven't been able to indulge. I have built myself a great little trailer for camping and am thinking of turning my skills to a trailer for my kayak but don't want to go to all that effort and then find I am not allowed on the road. I did find a site, Carryfreedom.com, which spoke of extending the draw bar on one of their trailers to tow a kayak but they are in the States. Since becoming a fulltime cyclist I have done some research into power assisted bikes and found that there is some limiting legislation in Australia. Can anyone tell me if there is a limit on the length of the load a bicycle can tow. I am in Queensland by the way.
