Those have been around since Moses wore sandals.....

Kinda scarce these days, though. Several folks coming to Carlisle have towed little motorcycle trailers. They hold several small suitcases, a tent and a cooler and seem to track straight, plus they're quite light.

Just get one of those trailer hitches that attach to the transmission horns (for pulling strength) and bumper mounts (to hold it up).

Back in 1970 I had a one wheel trailer with a shell on it to cover my equipment. I used it to shoe horses from and pulled it with a 1969 Bronco. Strange looking outfit but I could maneuver it easily in and out of smaller corrals and barnyards. Gordon is right about these being around since the Blarney Stone was a pebble.

Happy Trails,

Well I have to disagree, not with the age of the single wheel trailer but the comment about the Blarney stone being a pebble.
That tidbit of information is most inaccurate and, may cause long term disability or other serious problems.

When you consider the number of unsanitary people that have touched and kissed that stone, it's only likely that it began as a boulder and has been worn down to its current configuration. (by the effects of time and the acidity from people swapping spit with a rock)

Afterall, it's not likely that the Blarney stone started life as a pebble and grew to its current size.

Please, don't let such gross and mis-leading information pass through this bulletin board again...
Au contraire. The Blarney Stone did, in fact, start as a pebble. All of the human spit, skin cells, and oils have accreted over the ages to make it larger. In fact, it ought to be considerable larger than it is, but pieces of it have been removed from time to time to keep the "stone" to a manageable size. If you visit the area, you can actually see this collection. Just ask for the Blarney Rubble....
A good friend drove through Mexico to Panama many years ago pulling a one wheel utillity trailer. One major hurdle was when he encountered a local bridge over a river. The bridge had two parallel wooden planks for car wheels, separated by an open space of about 2 or 3 three feet.

Some local came up with an old truck axle that they tied onto the trailer to get him across. Imagine how he felt the next time he approached another bridge?
