It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

A recent post made me want to share and see how other people are carrying and towing voluminous stuff with bicycles. Show us your #carryshitolympics, or just regular hauls.
For example, I live on an archipelago and have a kayak and a SUP that I carry around with bike trailers. Depending on my destination and what I'm carrying, I use an Aosom trailer with a flat bed, but most of the times I can get away with a lighter Burley Travoy. Here are some pictures.

Hase Pino Tour with the stoker position removed. I put on an Aventon cargo tray that someone abandoned at the LBS. Burley Travoy for additional lightweight capacity. This load was supplies for a Juneteenth cookout party for 20 people.
For very heavy or large loads, I have a Surly Bill trailer.
Carrying a boat of this size on the Surly Bill is strongly contraindicated. :D I had a lot of weight in the stern, but the load shifted and things got squirrelly.
