bamboo bicycle trailer by freedom carry

in the spirit of new world explorers, (and looming winter months) i’m already starting to think about winter projects. besides looking for peeps who would be up for building, maintaining and fixing cargo bikes. i’m thinking of wrangling up a bunch of folks who want to build their own bike trailer.
