A Real Bike Trailer House
Check this out; a real bike trailer house! It’s not built to be a four-season house but it looks fairly complete and lightweight. It weights only 100 pounds dry. It was built by a guy named Paul who likes to build a cool transportation toys like 3-wheeler bikes.
This camper served as his nomadic home for a week at Burningman. It wasn’t made to work for long road trips but it does sound like a successful proof of concept. Every time I stumble across one of these tiny bike houses it makes me think that a bike pulled tiny house is a perfectly logical low-cost solution for some people.

Bike Camper
Logan and Tammy over at RowdyKittens found this tiny house on wheels and shared it with me and Kent over at Tiny House Blog. I don’t know much about this amazing little bike camper but it sure is inspiring… in an alternative housing kind of way. The photo was snapped by Kevin Cyr, an artist who like many of us appreciates the unusual. Here’s a quote from his website:
“In a culture in which people are easily lured by the appeal of status-enhancing symbols, I find beauty in derelict cars and unkempt landscapes. I have always been interested in painting vehicles and scenes that have defined the evolution of the American landscape.”
I suspect this little house is a bit on the heavy side but it is evidence that bike mounted tiny houses are not entirely crazy or impossible. Be sure to take look at Kevin Cyr’s art and other unusual mobile findings.
