You guys pulling an MRA trailer like last year?

No, we are not pulling a trailer this year.

Parade people say no trailer this time. Something about tight space constraints this year...

so what are the floats to do?

If we were to add a trailer, it would have been considered a float, and we would have been restricted to 25 bikes. I thought giving more people the opportunity to ride in the parade would be better.

If the general consensus is that we should have a burnout trailer instead, a) somebody's gotta build it (plexiglass(?) walls for crowd safety/liability), and b) the decision to do so would have to be made in December or January, before we register, because we have to tell them how many vehicles we're going to have, and if we're going to have a truck and/or truck and trailer.

Sorry guys, maybe next year.

...And someone else is pulling it, because I'm not risking a strap breaking and some bike flying into the back of my truck.
