Tricycle Goat Carts

Pennsic is a large medieval camping event that Craig and I attend every year. They don't allow real animals, so I decided I needed artificial ones. These are my goat carts, originally made for carrying bags of ice and various other heavy stuff. (You do a lot of walking at Pennsic, and they come in very handy.) They are built on tricycle frames, so the front legs (attached where the pedals used to be) "trot" when they're pulled. I had a difficult time explaining this concept to people when I was trying to figure out the design. It's very typical of the odd ideas that I tend to come up with. Normal people build a little wagon or something. I make pack goats. Go figure.
