Title: Square High Racer
Post by power_bent on Jul 28^th, 2009, 11:42am

Well I took the Square High Racer out to ride today with the Clowns . It's 3 miles from my house to the lake, 9. 75 miles around the lake and rode 3 miles back to the house and about 1/4 mile around the house. So for the first time out with the square bike, I got in 15 miles. It goona take a little while to get use to the bike mostly to holding my head up lay back like tha t(The old sweat was 42 degrees and now is 30 degrees). It seem to ride good and climb pretty good too. I need an extra bar added to the rear of bike for a little more stiffness. Jay Gorman was there and Lynn was too. I'll let them fill in about the ride because they were watching me. I forgot what speed we ere doing?
It sure feel good to be back out! :)

Looks like Power Bent has built himself a winner. [smiley=thumbsup.gif] It tracks straight and is faster than his factory-built Thunderbolt. He topped Big Thicket Hill at 19 mph and was cruising at times at 18 mph. I have never seen him climb Big Thicket Hill that fast, nor have I seen him sustain that high a cruise speed for any distance.
