Bicycle caravans

If it doesn't have a toilet and a shower then it's a non starter for me I'm afraid.

I like a few home comforts.

Craving for attention? This one will get you some!
Looks like some Mad Max SciFi post-doomsday mahcinery. The specs of the solar-electrical system are impressive - charging batteries additonally to sucking power for driving - thats what you want when sitting still in a place for the night and needing power to "survive" the break.

The Mody from the first video in the thread has since unfortunately been discontinued. The producing - and formerly healthy - company actually made car racing parts, started to suffer from the hysterical car-hostile climate in Germany, therefore had to lay off 90% of its employees, and then the cost explosion of inflation was added, so that the production costs more than tripled and production could only be maintained with red figures, although the company could not save itself from requests from home and abroad.

A cautionary tale of what lies ahead. Here it only affected a medium-sized company with about 30-40 employees, with 90% of them now beign fired. But the same pattern is eating like rust deeper and deeper into the big economic picture and the rest of the SME sector, and it is already becoming apparent that the job promises derived from digitization and the energy turnaround are not coming true, but are instead destroying more jobs in net terms than they are generating. And that's not even taking into account the increase in material costs in the manufacturing sector.

I feel sorry for this, since the scene generates a great demand for such - admittedly somewhat eccentric - vehicles, and the company, according to its own statements, could have sold dozens of Modys every day if it had been able to produce so quickly. But the tripling of material costs, promising to climb even much higher, have broken it its neck. Thus, the disappearance of the best bicycle caravan by far in terms of quality only serves as a warning for the economic and financial crash that is still ahead of us - and there are now increasing signs of this.

Welcome to the perfect storm. It's not coming - it's here. But many idiots in the federal govenment still have not gotten it, destroy economic infrastructure and throw immense amounts of money out of the window for short lasting strawfires or even nothing.


And they will never really be held accountable that goes beyond verbal phrases.

STEED was ahead of his time - had one of these. I think he used to struggle on the hills a bit

"Made in Britain" has suffered a bit, it seems. They do not build them like they used to anymore...
