That is a very cool video. He's a lucky boy to have friend with such a nice ride. You both looked to enjoy it a lot. Thanks for sharing.

Can you post some close up pictures of how you built it and how it attaches?

Thanks

Hey Jantie, I have not seen one of these "side-ride" set ups before. Looks very interesting.. I would love to have one for our School's Power Kite Club. It would be great to have another option besides the "tag-a-long" that I use for older riders. Does anyone know how they hook up etc, where we could get one? Price etc?

this is home-build, not for sale by any buggy-builder as far as i know.
and it is definitely great for/with kids alltough i myself don't know what i like more to do:
ride or ride along..

look at this tread for pics: CLICK


and thanks again for this Popeye: CLICK
