There used to be a guy who regularly turned up at slaloms in the late
60s early 70s with his slalom kayak all 4m (that's 14ft to you
imperialists) of it on his BSA's sidecar. Police in those days were more
tolerant in those days! I think the worst he had was to be advised to
"tie a rag to the end"
To me slaloms were cold enough with out arriving on a motorbike!

Hey, that's one heck of a setup. When camping I tow a BOB YAK trailer with a
hardtail mountain bike. The trailer is far too small to use for a canoe. Can
you give me some ideas on how to attach the end of the canoe to my hardtail?
Have a good one.
My attachment method is very simple. I take the bow line from my
kayak, loop it through the seat rails of the Brooks Pro on my Bike
Friday and tie it with a knot.
Note that this this works with the relatively large clearance between
the seat and rear tire found on the Bike Friday with 20" tires and may
not be suitable for bicycles with larger wheels and/or shorter riders.

Here's a picture I took yesterday of the setup for towing my kayak:
