Hello everyone. I am planning a 4 day tour cycling ride to Afrika Burn along with a lesser able adventurer. I need a modified bike that will be able to carry him. Does anyone know of such a beast here in the greater Cape Town area? 

 

Any help would be much appreciated. here is a link to our ride from last year...

Much love.

Lovely video .

Not clear what you want ito a bike for your passenger ?

Are you looking for a trailer ?

Thanks!

We need either a modified bike or a trailer that can connect to a bike. We just need some way of transporting our lesser able friend. 

Thanks

bas, so he's dead weight basically? or can he sit on a tandem of sorts?

 

you're looking for a trailer or an offroad bakfiets.

I like a trailer option with multiple hitches, so you can take turns to tow(or just leave it all to banger?)

 

BEN bikes might be able to point you in the right direction for any of this
