I used Hightowers trail a trike to get my VW from bottom of Lincolnshire. You didn't really know you had it on it towed so well with no problems. Wouldn't like to try and reverse though with the double articulation and my crap reversing. Of course te trike needs to have all tree wheels in decent order

I use a 2 wheeled dolly that a trike front wheel sits in but I only secure the trike front wheel to the dolly which means the forks/trike can pivot of the front wheel spindle as the vehicle is towing around corners and/or up & down uneven ground. I feel that this gives a similar effect as Terry's "binnacle" design towing dolly.

I,ve heard that if you are towing a bike trike any distance its advisable to remove or un bolt the prop shaft.
anyone know anything about that.
