I guess it'd get you home, or maybe up to speed to fire the motor up.
That's where it came from. I hit that site as part of my 'Morning Coffee' run on Sundays.Whoever, I'll bet they were happy they had that piece of wire handy. And hopefully it was just to get them home and not meant as a permanant fix.
It reminds me of the pictures on the 'There, I fixed it' website.

When i was a 5-6 year old kid, I had a bike with a link out, I put one of those clasping key rings that used to come on bubble gum machine trinkets on the chain as a temporary master link.after kicking rocks for awhile and throwing things around, we got the idea to use a simple key chain ring, threading part of it through the chain and the faceplate, and hammering on it with a rock to break off the extra wire parts.
Saturday nite here, I don't miss an episodeRed Green could fix or solve any problem!! I still watch his show on Friday evenings on PBS.
I used to watch Red Green nearly religiously.. his 'Wit and Wisdom' tour was hilarious.
I still think the most viable contraption I ever saw him 'build' was the elevator for the lodge out of an old phone booth, an old water heater tank, ropes, pulleys, a faucet and hoses. Fill the tank, the elevator went up. Drain it, and down it goes. Simple and effective. As long as you have a good place to attach the pulleys.
He gets to that at around 5 and a half minutes in.

Some people have a sense of humor others don't. if your going to post something like this then maybe you should be willing to post a link to somethingGoodmorning, and let me begin by being the least popular guy here today. Red Green is, at best, only occasionally mildly humorous.
Your time would be much better spent building a gas-bike
I am dug in, and prepared for incoming...
