Weld a rollover bar over the back end so when you do something dumb it won't crush you
I have an old Ford 641, Not sure what you would want it for but they pretty worthless, about a scoop shovel on wheels.
Mostly driving around town and looking good while doing it. My wife said no to a government surplus D6 she said it was impractical or some bullshit. This seems like a fair compromise.
thank you.
it's fall, y'all
definitely did not follow rule #1. 70*, gorgeous, leaf surfing at its best today.
for those who know, old yancey running prime right now. the classic 15 mile, 2600' loop ftw.
So no pics riding, i was just trying to keep up. First day, no owies.

You got your bike and bags?
Fuck yeah!
yesterday was a PD day, and it was a beautifully sunny and warm late fall day. so I got to ride with my oldest. it was fantastic
Had an overall great ride today, but had a good crash too. After I managed 8th all time (ebike) on Nikau last week I fancied I could do better so I hit that again today. First go though I managed to punch a tree on a tight corner and then did a front flip off the trail. I was going about 24kph, so it was quite a throw. A fern caught my bike and I ended up on my ass down the bank someway, pretty damn lucky. Felt like I was airborne for a while. I have a good impact between my little and ring finger on my left hand and a large bruise forming on my upper right leg now. Took quite a while to drag myself out, the bank was steep and slippery. Bars were well twisted, but the Across headset did its thing nicely. Think I might have killed my front fender though, it’s well twisted.
Anyway, not to be deterred, I went round the loop again and managed to get 4th all time.
Pretty stoked with that. Then I rode to the top, had a rest and then equaled my PB from top to bottom somehow. Also got 8th all time on another of the uphill/traverse trails, so I am a happy camper. Beer o’clock! That’ll help the swelling right?

Found a trail system that was new to me. Some of them looked a little gravel bike unfriendly, and I didn’t trust the amount of sealant in my tires, so I’ll have to come back some other time.
