    1700 miles in 5 days? Fantastic! You are Queen of the Super Slab! :clap

    But seriously, Moosey, congrats on your new ride and getting it home successfully. Really enjoyed our day together. Great fun these sidecars, huh?

    Ride safe.

    My regards to Moolou.

    Hi mogwai!

    When I get the Furbutt comfortable as a monkey, I'll give you a shout.

    I suspect Furbutt, like most tall dogs, is going to lean as far forward as possible in the hack. You might ought to investigate a better seating option, as when they do this their front paws will be on the floor, butt on the seat, and it leaves them very unstable and uncomfortable.

    Dropping the seat and windshield made Bryson a much better rider. Putting in a pooch pad made him a perfect rider.

    I loaded my 87 year old Ma into the chair and took her for spin...

    The Furbutt was jealous and claimed her rightful place at first opportunity...

    Yes it had possibility of impending disaster everywhere, the tail wind in NoDak was divine intervention or great Karma. Are you a Delta Diner customer ? DB

    Most definitely!!

    It's a nice hour plus ride through the Chequamegon National Forest.

    The electric tilt helped a lot in neutralizing the push/pull on the bars when the wind wasn't a tailwind.
