Yeehaw

So, the HarperChick and I were trying to figure out what to get each other for Christmas. So we broke down and got a "Free Radical" from extracycle. BAsically, it's like a pickup truck for your bike. You take off the back wheel, add a new frame, lengthen the chain, and you now have a frame with a rack and saddle bags that can carry 200 lbs. We also got a wide-load frame so we can carry our garden tools and also load boxes of veggies on the side.

We were so excited when we got a call from Matt down at PedalPower. "Aaron, your Diamondback is now an extracycle!"

You can't tell it's on there. It doesn't change the ride. Maybe the hill at 5th street is more of a bummer.

Ica says she knows how to put pix on the blog, so maybe we'll get some.
