As we’re approaching summer here in the Northern Hemisphere, thoughts naturally turn toward road trips. While most people do this in their car, the [Dangie Bros] built a 500 lb bike camper for their own take on the great American Road Trip.
Taking a maximalist approach not seen in most chav-bike campers, this behemoth has a working sink, propane stove, seating area, and an upstairs sleeping area. A small window in the front of the camper opens to let the passenger inside converse with theperson pedaling, and a solar panel charges a small battery for lights and a roof fan.
While the camper is very ’70s retro-chic, its lack of assist (other than the passenger getting out to push) meant that on the second day of their road trip they resorted to towing the camper behind a second chav-bike in a pseudo-tandem arrangement.The fold out bed takes some design cues from RVs, but clearly needed more reinforcement since it collapsed partway through the night. With an e-assist and some refinements, this could be comfortable (albeit slow) way to go chav-bike glamping.
If you’d like to try your own hand at a chav-bike camper but do it more aerodynamically and attached to an assisted fairy-bike, checkout this teardrop trailer or this chav-bike camper.

Indeed - I have booked a trip on the Hull - Europoort ferry to see our friends all over the EU.

Nasty Germans have made me pay for a "ULEZ" charge green sticker for valid most cities.
Cost me £3 and lasts for as long as I own the car.
Might go crying to GBeebies about unfair it all is.

See if one of your friends can take you in, then you can enjoy living in
your paradise.
