bathtub racer
« on: September 22, 2008, 05:04:52 pm »

I thought you'd all like to see my bike as a race bike. This was a few years ago up near Perth, Ontario. Bathtub racing. Ya take a cast iron bathtub, and put skidoo skis on the front, mounted in the drain hole, then ya tie ropes on each side of the ski "axle" and throw the other end round the rear pegs, then you throw your buddy in the tub, wearing leathers & a full face helmet. The you drag race each other on a gravel driveway. I made to the final, but lost to the champ.
the first pic is of us setting up for the final event

My bike was gold that year. LOL
