monthly horse trailer & towing articles published in a magazine

[anthony79]

Would anyone read or take part if I were to write an article each month for a couple of horsey magazines on trailer towing and the law?
What I am trying to acheive is a greater awareness on trailer safety and some where for people to ask questions and see there replies published which could help other readers with the same problems.
It may sound abit boring, but I think it could work, and you would be getting answers from a fully qualified trailer technician. But I would be interested on your opinion !

Sounds like a very good idea , I also think trailers should have to be MOTed or at least have proof of a yearly service... its amazing what people get away with towing about

This is a difficult one where I personally would never read about trailers etc cos as you say its boring, but on the other hand there is a definite need to know so its probably on reflection a good idea,

I don't want to end up publishing a page of me laying down the law on trailers, no one finds that interesting.
But if it was more of a trailer problem page, so it was based on the readers issues and then perhaps some hints and tips!

I think its a great idea, because of where I live its very difficult if I get problems with mine - and have only jsut found someone to service it after 3years of owning this one (previous place closed just after I replaced last one).

But as you say just a page of literature isn't going to attrack anyones attention, but if you have answers to questions I'm sure you get frequently asked I think it could work quite well

Yes, definitely!

There are to many 'grey areas' on towing, the law and what is safe!

Go for it

 

[anthony79]

They are grey because nobody knows where to go. And when you do find a site, it takes forever to find what you want, so you just end up asking each other which turns black into grey!!

Ah thats a great idea then as it will be relevant to someone's needs rather than a general piece of reading.

Please keep voting!!

I have only just bought my first trailer so would be very keen to read any tips and advice!
