If it's got tits or tyres... It's gonna be trouble..
Handlebar bra. It is an adjustable webbing strap the slides over the handlebar grips then you attach the tiedowns to the loops on the ends. At least one more tiedown on the rear to stop sideways movement. Push the bike down hard as you adjust/tighten each front tiedown until there is no more movement down as the bike will crab with bounces it it is too loose, then drop over on you.
These seem a good package but any decent bike shop will have what you need for the same or similar money. I bought the handlebar strap for $25 from my local bike shop a year or so ago and paid about $50 ish for this combo shortly after.

I brought the one in the link and used it when on the ferry, definitely recommend it.

A piece of rope works fine.
So long as you are able to tie a decent knot. Rope can also come in useful for a variety of other tasks.

Mate, it's blue. That's a girly rope
Actually, a rope will do as a last resort. Put a loop in one end, wrap the middle of the rope through a non markable and non slippable area on the bike, top triple tree or similar, run the non looped end through a ring on the trailer, through the loop and back down to the ring on the trailer and pull tight then tie off.
But why would you?
Bra and tiedowns and you're done.
Areofast tie downs, two for the front(attach to 'bars) one to hold the rear in place.
Any Bunnings, Mitre10, placemakers etc.
Quality items.
Going away, busy?
