You are really going to create a dangerous situation. You’ll probably flip your bike trailer.

You may need to check your local laws.
In most locations, it is illegal to pull a trailer with a trailer.
Even if it is legal in your location, you will want to check the local laws for your entire trip. If you cross a state line and it is illegal in the state you are in, you will be pulled over and ticked. You will not be allowed to continue with your trailer pulling trailer. Now what do you do? You will have to leave something behind on the side of the road. This could also be ticketed and towed.

I don’t know where in the world you are but in the UK this is only legal if the towing vehicle is registered as a showmans engine and limited to a maximum speed of 12 MPH.

once in a while out here in Colorado I see a truck drive by with a large basket attached to the rear end holding a power chair or dirt bikes or something, I’ve even seen this basket being used in addition to a boat behind the truck.
maybe you should look into this, maybe they have one that will hold your bike.
if your towing the trailer behind a truck, y don’t you just put your bike in the bed of the truck?
if your towing your popup behind anything else, y don’t you get a truck?

most places require the trailer in front to be a tandem axle trailer…. i doubt your tent trailer has 2 axles, so no, you wouldn’t be legal. if you’re up for swapping trailers, they do make tent trailer toy haulers with a utility trailer type front to them, you have to unload the cargo before the trailer can be unfolded though
