James is currently undertaking a ride from Darwin to Perth which is around 4,000 km on a carbon framed bike. His route includes the infamous Gibb River Road.



James crossing the Pentecost River on the Gibb River Road. Bigger issue here is not a carbon framed bike but the "friendly" saltwater crocodiles

He is pulling an Extrawheel Voyager trailer behind his bike.



This is my trailer, not James but it gives you are idea of the design.

James is progressing well and other than an issue with the rack that he added to the trailer, bike, trailer and rider are going well. So for me, I cannot see this as being an issue unless of course you are taking on some pretty serious off-road riding

Regards
Andrew
