Any cheap or slick or easy ways to transport these 40 pound toys? Just hauling them from the truck to the track is hard for this 68 year old man.

I got this from home depot, one for each ride, the cool thing is it haul my rides and I don't have to keep holding once I am driving, I just wrap around bumper or cage and stay on it on car all the time in case some thing goes wrong and car is far way, gear tie is there already all times, it works like a champ...old man...lol

Wagon works good. Get the garden one with the pneumatic wheels, that way it can roll over rough ground easier

I have one of those!! And it is a neat way of convincing the wife that you are doing something constructive! Just cover the truck up!
Haha. Good idea

I keep 10' of paracord to wheel it behind me. One end around the bumper, the other attached to my pack or around my waist.
