  1. Well, the club welder took my uni, some tubing, and a bike
    wheel, and I now have a perfectly solid 2 wheeler!

    I started trying it out today, and can freemount it into
    teetering on top...but as soon as I try to convince my legs
    to pedal backwards...they pedal forwards and I fall off.

    Although, being able to get atop it is a lot better than
    pulling myself up a wet tree limb, like we started out doing
    earlier today!

    Here are some pics...the twisting in the first pic only has
    one bearing bolt in each side...the welder was not looking
    directly into the arc when welding.

    The finished uni will have a white frame...we just had to
    put it through some testing before bothering to paint it.
    After the several dozen drops it's been through already, it
    is probably good for painting.

    Have you landed any yet? 😉 Very nice! Please keep us up to
    date with your two-wheeling.
