Someone had a lot of time.

I think you should hire a full-time sherpa to ride the x-tra cycle and you up the hill while you sit on the Enduro, then blast down.

NORCAL is the hizzle
Hahaha, that's awesome for...um...ahhh....let's see...

Wait! I got it! It's perfect for those short flat rides to the trailhead when you want to bring a cooler of beer and food, a sound system, and a grill. Or for riding over to your girl's house with an extra bike she can ride.

made me laugh :biggrin:


To try and hit on all questions raised. The reasons in order::

1. I had nothing else to do
2. It confuses people(especially my neighbors)
3. It amused me for 1/2 hour
3. Mountain bike tires are expensive and that soft rubber wears off quick on the road.
4. Dual susp mtn bikes are not as much fun to pedal on the road.
5. Gas is expensive

Of course, it's totally impractical in every way, but that's not the point.
I do plan on putting the rack on a new top secret xtracycle I am building up and this one will be made for speed. Cap forest is a 20 minute drive from my house. I do eventually plan on biking there, riding, then biking back. There is a chap who lives close that I can park my bike at while I'm riding.. stay tuned...


More photos for wood dog- It just sets down in between the 2x4's then is held on with the blue strap. Rests against the crankarm covered with a shinpad. Very secure actually.
