A bicycle trailer can easily be mounted to and dismounted from a bicycle seat post without requiring the use of tools. Pivotally interconnected first, second and at least one intermediate, segments are positioned around the seat post when the hitch is mounted thereto. A latch detachedly couples free end portions of the first and second segments together. A pivot for coupling to the towing arm of a bicycle trailer is coupled to one of the segments. Desirably the latch is capable of adjusting the distance between the free end portions to accommodate seat posts of different diameters. Cushions can project inwardly from the segments and into engagement with a seat post to which the hitch is mounted.
