You could also fold up the Travoy and put it next to the bike and put the dog food underneath. This is assuming your Costco has the same mega-carts as the one I go to.
Anything to avoid locking up the bike outside.
When I was using the Travoy with my BF I did that - the pakiT easily quickfolds into the car with plenty of room for groceries. But I've actually found it's simpler for me to dedicate the Dahon, leaving the Travoy hinge bracket on it, and lock the bike outside with a mini u lock and roll the Travoy around instead of a Costco cart. I'm not at all concerned about leaving the Dahon locked up. That also ensures I don't buy stuff that won't fit on the Travoy - easy to do at Costco if you aren't careful. This leaves my BF free of the trailer hinge, a small weight savings, and also makes it easier to fold by dropping the seat post.
