At first I was, this is stupid. Now I'm thinking it may actually be cool…

My wife would love it. :lol: But then again, not up, down or across some technical trail.

I know that some teams did it a few years ago during the Transalp stage race in Europe, and some teams complained about unfair advantages.

Teams racing the Eco Challenge adventure series used something similar for the bike legs.

Wouldn't work on my bike as I don't have a "saddle post".

I'll get one and take the wife down Boundary. She'll love it I'm sure.

I could only watch the first 20 seconds before the Aussie ascent got to me.

Hey!

I know we Aussie's can be a bit rough but something truly horrible like that is a product of New Zealand.

This same thing can be achieved much easier with an old inner tube. Simply tie it around the seatpost of the horse and hook it over the stem of the cart.

Advantage of the inner tube method is that it's quite easy for the cart to flip it off their stem if they need to become detached quickly. Also it's cheap.
