I run that forum, it is very quiet since a group started on Facebook.

While a full size 26" wheeled bike, still folded small enough to fit in a trunk, and handled me when I was 370 lbs, though the factory only rates it for 240 (roughly where I am now). I did upgrade the wheels, crankset, and seatpost... just to reinforce it.
I've considered setting it up to tow a micro-foamie, and I'd look at setting the trailer up with a storage bag or box on the front where I can lock up my bike out of sight when the trailer is set up. Stop at a good spot, unhitch and deploy trailer, fold bike (about 30 seconds), and stow it... unless I need to ride out for some groceries or something.
I'm only beginning to visit the idea of a bike camper, but I think I'd consider a narrower trailer that would expand on deployment, so as not to take up too much space while riding. A good reference, I guess, would be to splay my elbows while on the bike, and measure the width. No point in going narrower than myself, after all.
