That would be one hell of a quads work out in that sand.


That beach is pretty good, low tide and you can ride a regular bike a fair way
Can run the tyres on 5 lb


Nice.
Mum use to say don't ask how much.
How much ?


About two McTavs. Simondo and Mc could run a fleet of them

Ever since DJ showed his first video of his bike last yr I have wanted one of these.I hope you have a long and enjoyable relationship with it!!!! My want list is long though and its nots near the top. Its getting closer though. The Ments are calling me this winter so the bike gets put back.


Thanks Ted
They are amazing to ride, and do work in the sand. Nice low gears, not made for speed. I have a
place up the coast at Lancelin and it is beaches and dunes
like that for 100's of kms
Really puts a smile on your face.

You guys joke about the other room, but it has nothing on these guys
Some good vids though

Sounds perfect. We have a couple of long beaches here that I would love to use one on. Not as long as yours though Will be interested in how its holding up after a few months of solid use. Might be a silly question but how do you intend to clean it after use - will you hose it down and oil the chain? Or do something else ? This is something that has me concerned

i seem to remember scotty writing a thesis on the subject- 'the ability to clean sand and salt water of fat boy beach bike chains in 500 pages'


simondo gets some research credits apparently

Let the sand form a new shell on the outside and just buy a new chain everytime you ride it. Saves cleaning it!

Well done young Cupcake.

DJ is mr Naish around these parts.

Next task is to learn some surf history so you don't sound so young.

Here is the question - what was the name of the famous board brand that Terry Fitzgerald started in Brooky in the early seventies.

Hint - it had a rainbow as part of its branding.

You have until this time tomorrow to get the answer.

Good luck.

ET.
