Default Kendon Trailer

I use a Kendon stand-up trailer. Newer model with the tubular frame. I am comfortable loading a heavy weight bike on the trailer by myself. However, find it very challenging trying to unload a bike. Especially by myself. As I roll the bike off the trailer, I find it difficult to see & line-up the rear wheel on the narrow Kendon ramp. I like all the other features of the trailer. My question; Any one have success locating &/or using an after-market (wider) ramp on the Kendon trailer? How do you secure the ramp to the Kendons's tubular frame? Thanks.

I just saw a friend with a Kendon like you have. He had a ramp for each side for his feet as he came off the trailer. He attatched it to the trailer with a wire that was fastened on the ramp he fastened it to the trailer with a hook.. I have a Phoenix stand up and i dropped my bike as i was unloading. I didn't have anything to put my feet on except the grounds and it was lower than my legs could reach .The ramp he had can be picked up at most any trailer sales or maybe even Wal-Mart ???
