    I just used the trailer I had for my landscape business. It came with the truck I bought and 2 other trailers and some equipment I bought when I started my business, and served me well over all those years. It finally got too rusty to use any more so I dropped it off at the recycling yard. Not long after I bought a small aluminum trailer which I've used for my bikes. It's very short so I have to park the bike diagonally to get it to fit! But nice and light and doesn't take up too much space on my driveway. Since I don't do track events it will serve the purpose, I guess.

    I like this little trailer because you can fold the back 4ft on itself and actually store the trailer upright in the garage (if I had space). 2500lb capacity is plenty and has the gear storage box between the bikes for tie down, etc. Super easy to tow and with the upgraded tires and lighting, it should work out well next week. :) It is so light and balanced (with the back part down) that I can just push down and move the trailer where ever in the yard with hooking it up to a vehicle. If the ground isn't level, I just ask my wife to sit on the tail of the trailer and I can move it by the hitch with very little effort. I want to train my dog to sit on it, but when I move he moves. lol

    Kits are available to turning most lighter trailers on their side for vertical storage. I pulled a Kendon with my friend's cars for years. never towed anything so noisy or so slippery to load in the rain. I went to full aluminum, sprayed the deck with some grippy stuff, and never looked back.

    +1 on the noise. They put diamond plate on it without proper support. I am rectifying that this weekend. although I don't hear it at highway speeds. lol

    I have a single Kendon and I don’t hear anything ( probably because I’m blasting Van Halen ). Love my little trailer … easy to store and a bitch to back up … I getting better though …

    I got to see them twice (with Roth). Diver Down and 1984 tours. A couple of the best concerts ever.

    He said
    “ keep it up” .. it’s worth it !
