Ski bike test and tune

#1

Warning* If you are a purist..stop reading here. To all others...I got this sweet little Allied Leisure ski bike from Jeep this year. I have been dying to try it out. I finally got the chance to test it and make sure I wasn't gonna break my neck before the ski hill :laugh:. I took it down a few steep driveways and then grabbed the bumper of my neighbors truck for a fast drive down the block. I think at this point its time for Derby hill (aka huge sledding hill by thunderdrome). Then after that hopefully a full ski hill. Anyways...stay tuned. I am gonna try to get some video and a helmit cam for these trips...key word..try. :doah:

Just tie a tow rope to a bumper and have someone pull you around the hood....:smile:
I actually tried that..I need to clean and adjust the latch on the front. It wont release fully. Which may be a problem. My friends would drag me down the freeway on it if I couldn't release from the vehicle.:laugh:

Thats not true.. The Porcupine Mountains are pretty big hills, granted...

But there are quite a few areas down here with some HUGE rolling hills.. I mean you fall off that bitch YOU WILL die.. Either break your neck 60 MPH against a tree, or just flat be stuck in a bowl till you die, never climb out.. :mellow:

Like just as huge and some much huger than most all the sand hills up there.. Not an Actual mountain.. but pretty damned close..

Ya..it does have a weight load capacity limit lil fella :laugh:
And everybody told me put it in my basement with the rest of my Lil Indian stuff....but I just had to try it. It's like handing a small child a hand grenade and saying don't pull the pin:doah:. And now I did..I really like it. :thumbsup:
