me and a couple friends have gotten tired of searching the internet for these so we are building our own. there will be lots more pics put up tomorrow, it will be a "build thread" lol. this pic is to get the thread going. anyone interested feel free to build your own, ask questions, etc.

gonna cut this axle and wheelset off an old four wheeler trailer to use for my rear end. bmx handlebars and stem to give me some knee room. and the curved steel pipe is from a satellite dish mount and seems sturdy enough to use as a top tube for squaring up the bike frame after i cut it. getting a free bike tomorrow so we'll see about starting the build tomorrow.

in a neighborhood that is pretty hilly, drift back and forth down the street, minimal traffic, and intersections are perfect turns to drift around.

yeah or at kennesaw mtn on one of the days the road is closed up the mountain, only open to bikes and stuff. that would be perfect.

That shit is cool as fawk! I found a website for those things a long time ago and they were like $200+ and really hard to get.

I dunno how that road is since ive never been there...but that seems like a bad idea. I would be worried a bike hauling ass would run over me going through a curve or something.
