Welcome from a Wisconsin expat in Illannoy.

Take the classes. I can’t recommend that enough. I wish they were around when I started riding way back in the 60s. Don’t scrimp on the safety gear,...

Man, I am outta shape. I replaced the pusher tire yesterday and I still hurt this morning. My original plan was to mount the new tire on the spare rim, move the pusher to the sidecar, and relegate...

Yup.
I showed Mrs.C some online pics and she said, "Oh, pretty. You need to repaint it back to the original red."

Bingo, Thanks.

I used to drool over the Herters Hunting Catalog as a kid. Once in a blue moon, I'd get to go to one of the stores. The last store I went to was in Eau Claire, WI forty years ago...

I did manage to find a manual online for the torque converter, so that's something, I guess. As it is Saturday, and probably going to rain today, I think I will stay away from it.

I've Got To Learn To Say No

My SIL asked if I could get his Dad's old mini bike going for the grandsons. I agreed. Idiot.
It's been sitting since the late 70s and needs a bunch of TLC.

New petcock installed yesterday afternoon. It's not a vacuum style, so I have to remember to open and close it. That's the tough part.
