Title: Torsionally resilient structure for a sidecar

Abstract: An apparatus of torsionally resilient sidecar structure and resilient structure for connecting it to any type of a two-wheel land vehicle, be it pedal-powered, motor-driven or any combination of propulsion; the sidecar operatively attachable to the two-wheel vehicle by a plurality of torsionally resilient connecting members, each of them bent to form a longer mid-portion and two shorter end-portions, the longer mid-portions positioned substantially horizontally and transversely between the frame of the two-wheel vehicle and the sidecar, thus determining the overall width of the combined vehicle, and their shorter end-portions operatively attached on one side to the structural members of the two-wheel vehicle and on the other side to the structural members of the sidecar assembly.
