Recumbent bikes use chain tubes for ' long chain' management, and also to protect pant legs etc from grease.

Thanks! A few years ago I dressed up my quadricycle for the Santa Claus parade.
I used Coroplast with 1x2 for framing and strength. We didn't have those cute LEDs then. I think I used a 9v battery for energy.

A few years ago I set up a shopper for my wife and installed folding rear baskets. She liked the hi-viz so much that she kept them open.

I quit driving in '96. At the time, CAA reported that it cost on average about $13,000 to drive and maintain a car for a year. 29x13000=$377,000.

The boycott is working. Nofrills on George #ptbo
Selling U.S. lettuce in terrible condition. I asked the produce manager how could he expect to sell it in this condition?
The bunker was loaded. Probably set there for 1-2.

Just finished my fence repair. Had to dig out 3 old post holes. 2 had concrete that had to be removed as new posts had to be in same position. Had to dig by hand.

Yup...the ride was smooth..no probs.
But when I got there, I missed my turn (poor signage) and got into a 6" rutted mud wrestle going uphill. If I hadn't had the motor, I'd probably still be there. By the time I got home my battery was on life support.

6 yrs ago we bought a SH chair for $40. Now that it's been 🙀 ruined, @cityptbo.bsky.social wants $60 to take it away. So I decided to ride to the dump. It was a $12 fee. #ebike #cargo trike
So I got a nice ride in the country and saved$48.

1896–1901 Ford sold his first Quadricycle for $200 in 1896 to Charles Ainsley. He later built two more Quadricycles: one in 1899, and another in 1901.

Ford used bicycle parts to build his 1st car.
To my right is my family car since 2000, A quadricycle with an emotor.

Got to Trent Severn Waterway Lock 15 at 3:30. Staff gone already, so no washroom, electricity, or drinking water.
But I have enough water, my phone is charging from my powerpac, and the sun is still charging the battery. 56.9V

I quit driving 30 years ago. At the time CAA said cost of driving was avg $13,000 per year.
Based on that I saved $390,000 that I didn't have to go out and earn.

Got an entertainment unit at the Thrift Shop for only $30.
So I brung it on home with my #cargobike and trailer.

Hot day. Out for a cooling #bike ride and stopped in a shady nook by the #Ottonabee River for a quiet break.
