Can I tow my beloved trike behind me?

Hello fellow caravanners.  I have a very very beloved trike that I would love to take with me when I go on holiday.

It sounds simple except that I have a VW T6 Campervan towing a small 2009 Swift Coniche 15/2 - 2 berth caravan.   Can I tow my trike on that using any sort of device?  The trike weighs 350KG on the road.   Can I fit a towing dolly to the rear of the caravan?

Does anyone have any genius suggestions that I can research?

Or am I just insane?
Prem

    Unless you have a showmans licence you can only tow one trailer.There is no way that a towbar could be fitted to a touring caravan anyway so perhaps the answer to your last question would be yes and are you blondesurprised

    Buy a low loader trailer on which you can put both the caravan and the trike.

    Towing two trailers? Good grief!

    The use of a towing dolly is not legal except for emergency recovery.

    Put the trike on a trailer, leave the caravan at home and use the campervan for your holidays. Sorted👍🏻🤣

    Hmm, the last suggestion by Prem seems most likely 😂😂😂
