ABSTRACT:
A ball joint is affixed to the harness of a kite and a kite string is tied at its first end to the ball joint. A kite tethering device is affixed to the frame of a bicycle for affixing the second end of the string to the bicycle. The kite tethering device comprises an elastic cord affixed at its first end to the second end of the kite string. A tubular member has a ball joint seat formed in a first end thereof for accommodating the ball joint. The elastic cord passes through the tubular member and out of such member at the second end thereof. A clamp affixed to the second end of the elastic cord is clamped to the frame of the bicycle between the seat and the rear wheel thereof whereby when the kite is not borne aloft, the elastic cord maintains the ball joint seated in the ball joint seat of the tubular member.
