Hello from Santa Barbara!

tomorrow is out for a ride I gotta finish this friggin throw out bearing.....

 

Mud Flap

I just hate it when my shock gets crudded up with road grime. Didn't really want to add a hugger so... cut a mudflap out of sheet rubber ('neoprene' to some) and affixed it to the undertail plastic with heavy duty velcro. Rode in the Santa Barbara Toy Ride today and rain/mud tested it. Worked perfectly. Cost for the rubber, $2. Velcro, $3. And since space is pretty tight and difficult to view, it doesn't even look ghetto. When I figure out how to post an image, I'll put one up.

 

thats easy Markus...... do you have a photo bucket account..
if so you cut and paste the "image" link information , and paste directly into a post here...


I was gonna ride in that ,,,but I have been down with a gnarley cold all week [/I]

 

Nope, no Photobucket acct. At your suggestion, I looked into it but, didn't like the idea of giving them my "valid" cell phone #. I just uploaded 3 "mudflap" images to the 5th Gen album (I think). Or maybe they're in my "photo gallery(?)" Width of the rubber is 5-3/8" x 7-1/4" at the longest edge. Sheet rubber used is 1/4" thick so it's relatively rigid yet, still retains flexibility.

 

And some of that chili!

 

and the BBQ ...........OMFG.it is to die for
