SYD: Would like to borrow someone's trailer...
Hey all,
I need to borrow a trailer for a little while for a run down to Goulburn on the 25th October.
Normally I'd just rent one from the local hire place, but as the 25th is a Sunday I'd have to pick up on the Sat and drop off on the Mon. Which normally wouldn't be a problem except I can't drop off on the Mon this time due to work commitments.
So, rather than renting a trailer for several days for a one day trip I thought I'd see if anyone not too far from me (Gosford) can lend me a trailer with a ramp for a bit of time? So anyone north or north west of Sydney. Something not too large that my 2L Cerato can pull.
I'd have to pick it up late afternoon/evening on the 24th, but then probably wouldn't be able to drop it back until at least the 31st.
Anyone able to help me out? PM me or post here please.
Thanks in advance

Is a 7 x 5 that weighs 350 kg to heavy for a 2l Cerato? I guess you could always tow the Cerato home in it!
No plans for my trailer in that week and I live at Turramurra, I regularly tow my two bikes to track days no problems. Can even provide the straps to tie the bike down
If this helps or you don't get one closer or more suitable then let me know.
Cheers,
Nick
Oh forgot to mention I drink beer

Thanks Guys,
I didn't ask to borrow yours Dave cos I doubt the Cerato could pull it
Std 7' or 8' is no trouble though.
And Dave, no I'm not getting anything, sorry to get you excited - the postie's going to the track
Nick and Richo, thanks to both of you.
Richo, with you being closer I might bags yours.. We'll catch up next time I'm at the pits, or I'll PM your closer.
Thanks again - I can breathe a sigh of relief.
(thought I was going to have to use the roof racks)

Otherwise I'd have gotten one of those bike shelves you see on the back of motorhomes
