 Re: Riding in the hood.
I took my mtb25 for the last serious test. Would it be acceptable for a real world errand. I took it to the home depot to buy some chain to replace the brake cable i had been using on the gravity clutch to lift the engine. The bike did well. There were two hills I had to help it on but that shouldn't be a problem when I build the 31cc that I plan after the demo bike. It really wasn't an issue with this one just had to pedal a little to keep the speed up.
On the way home an old man,who also rides a bike for health reasons, stopped me. He has offered to buy my china bike. I told him I would be more than willing to sell it. We agreed on a price and he asked me to hold it till he gets paid, since I don't take plastic I agreed.
If he comes up with the money, I am out of the China bike ownership situation. Never again. I really do love my weed whacker bikes. If he doesn't I will put a sign on it and put it in my yard. I would be surprised if it lasts a day. |
