Something that I saw
Of extreme interest last weekend.
Are you ready for this? A BICYCLE on the sand. Freaked me out. On a backside beach in Truro I saw a guy riding a bike. Aired down. The thing looked like it had motorcycle tires. And he climbed a hill right next to me and Mikey. I heard no huffing and puffing - all of a sudden , there he was. His trail faded of into the distance toward Longnook. No footprints like he was pushing. I think that there might be a futere in this. No more 150$ permits that are good for nothing. Just pedal away. I have my son, Noak who works at Providence Bicycle looking into this for me.  |
He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.

Fred, I mentioned on one of the closed beach threads that I need to get a bike for the sand. If the tires only need to be the size of motorcycle tires, then that is great. Maybe some modifications and some welding here and there and it would work.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

There's a guy who regularly rides the beach at Plum Island. It looks like the bike was made for real wide tires and he zips along without getting stuck. Hmmmm maybe we can rig em like a canal bike. Rods plugs and any gear you chose to drag along.  |

i saw one recently
seems they are (were) kids bikes origionally,
yet only the rear tire was wide
like a honda 90 width size tire
and it had a mini banana seat too..
i think to air down the tires a bit
and to use them in the sand it would
be great if they had like...
just five gears instead of ten and up...
