    What’s the block of wood for between the fender and tire? Haven’t seen that before, might need to try something new.

    You talkin to me? I went back and looked but didn't see any other "wood block tire" pictures. Lol. It's just a homemade one of these.

    It just makes tieing it down more solid without over compressing the forks.

    Thanks! I don't mind sharing um. Kinda stole it from a riding buddy. He uses a chunk of 4x4. I didn't have any scrap 4x4 laying around so i improvised.

    It definitely makes the bike more solid once strapped. No chance of rocking back and forth on rough dirt roads and a strap hook coming undone.

    Cool!
    I've always been intrigued by unique kites...I had a cheap "stunt kite" as a kid, but it eventually got torn up...have never seen anything like it since.
    Probably the most unique one I have now is one that the "head" is supposed to be a dolphin, and the "body" is the kites tail, about 15' long, kinda like your red one.

    Last week in a turkey blind, I enjoyed the full moon descending as the sun came up.
