New Canal Ride
I finally finished my new canal cruiser. Its an old trike, but in good condition. With a little elbow grease and some new parts we are ready to roll. Now all it needs is a few stickers to be totally complete.

not a bad trade for a drywall gun.
wdmso...caught most of my fish from a boat in the Taunton River. It is kind of my "Go to" river. The small boat can get me in some interesting spots.

You are going to love it, my buddy Joe has one and its pretty awesome. Just to not worry about bumps and blowdowns is great, holds tons of gear, and if you choose to keep a fish its easy to ride with. The only problem is its not as good on the hills, but worth thr trade off as long as you have a way to transport it. His biggest problem was really the temptation to bring too much stuff.

Show off!!! Actually its awesome. I wish I had the aluminum rack on mine. I thought about putting wider tires on the back of mine, and I like the back rest too.

My cruiser is a 2-wheel mountain bike. I went from the wide knobby tires to thin, near roadbike style. Coasts so much better it's ridiculous. Unless you're going off pavement all you'll gain with wide tires is a better workout. |

I never looked at it that way Matt, makes sense, looks like narrow is the way to go. I just don't like the knobby tires.
