The caravan designed to be towed behind a bicycle

It’s the ideal accessory for cyclists who demand the height of luxury on their camping trips – a fully-equipped, single-berth caravan designed to be towed by a bicycle.

The caravan boasts a full-sized single bed, 19” TV, drinks cabinet and tea-making facilities. The ETA commissioned the bicycle caravan during Green Transport Week to illustrate the efficiency of the bicycle.

The caravan illustrates the versatility of the bicycle. Bikes don’t just beat traffic, get you fit, save you money and go easy on the environment – few people realise how much you can carry or tow with them.

The ethical choice

The ETA was established in 1990 as an ethical provider of green, reliable travel services. Over 30 years on, we continue to offer cycle insurance breakdown cover and mobility scooter insurance while putting concern for the environment at the heart of all we do.

The Good Shopping Guide judges us to be the UK’s most ethical provider.

        Hi Mr. Read,
        I am a design student who has decided to create a bike caravan for my project.
        I’m just wondering how I may be able to contact you to ask some questions about this wonderful caravan you have created?

        Furthermore,
        Did you require a government permit for this vehicle to drive it on the roads or need to register it? Were there any vehicle creation parameters?

        Thank you very much

    this is a very nice caravan but 5500 pounds is more than rediculous !! i have personally made one recently to a very high quality for less than 500 pounds. building a bicycle caravan is very easy and very cheap. i understand the company needs to turn a profit but at 5500 that is profiteering

    • Frank

      Since you made one for less, would you be able to share the instructions on how to build one?

    I’m not sure what this option would weigh. But slightly larger street lidded plastic recycling containers look a promising base. In particular, this is due to their potential for improvising an Elevating/Pop-Up Roof given the addition of concertina-like material.
