Something about a porch or patio that gets a man thinking. You ever notice? You go out and sit down on your Porch or Patio and whats the first thing you do...Start thinkin'...and there is something about a rocking chair or swing that really gets the grey matter flowing! I wonder how many great things came from porches and patios?
Anyway...
I was swingin' on my patio watchin' the little neighbor girls slowly ride around in one of them pink,plastic, power wheels, barbie, jeeps?....and I got to thinkin'....hmmm what if ya put a little engine on one...then I thought surely someone else has been sittin on their patio and thought the same thing...

sure enough...

John,
That's a cool forum. Those guys build some great stuff. I'd like to see what they'd do with one of our bikes. Thanks for sharing.

yeah the internet can be a great place ...I like stumbling into cool places things and people...here and out there....

but back to porches and patios... I use to put in 2 concrete ones a day almost...along with 2 garages and 2 house slabs...so I know somewhere someplace right now someone is sitting on one of my porches or patios...thinkin about something

My front porch is also my workshop. I've built many a speaker enclosure out there.

I will never cut wood in the garage again, sawdust everywhere.

It's raining cats & dogs right now. My Golden Retriever, Baxter and I were setting on the back porch watching the rain. Just thought I'd share it with you guys.

Now that looks like a place where a man could do some serious contemplatin'! Very nice, I like that continuous concrete edging...sure makes a yard look neat and trim

Hey while your out there maybe you can ponder how I might be able to hook up one of Mike Bs speaker boxes to my bike...
