Who else knew about this!
We need to post the youtube link that was posted under Jefferson State, here in this thread. :roll:
Sorry I don't have enough computer skills to do it. :cry:
But, I could build one of these things.
The youtube link, links to other videos..........you must check out the BMW build?
I stayed up until 3:30 am watching the process after I was introduced to CycleKarts at 10:04 pm......???? :oops:
You "Builders" will love this!

Watching the videos made me wonder if they are street legal. I came to the conclusion that they probably follow bicycle guidelines.

That looks seriously low-tech!

I don't need another hobby, especially one that costs money ;-)

Okay, it has been 38 hours now since I saw this video and was introduced to CycleKarts! :oops:
I have spent at least 10 of that researching, and maybe 10 hours sleeping.
Yes the rest was spent on Kermit........but I was secretly thinking about building a CycleKart in the future! :twisted:

If you are a serious builder and like old cars ........then maybe you should not watch this as we would hate for you to cut into your Teardrop Time.
Grant, I know you are retired and share my lust for cars and cool stuff? So be careful here! :roll:
Enjoy!

Hey, Brian!

Yeah, I like cars enough ... ;) ... but, I'm busy enough these days taking care of my 93yo father (he fell on 12/8 and now needs nearly 24/7 care) and supporting/mentoring our 7yo grandson in his skateboarding, scootering, and park-bike riding. Jovan and I are both nuts of over Drift Trikes, though, so maybe that will be an upcoming project ... :twisted: ... (once everything settles down with Dad) ...!

Have fun ... I'll look forward to seeing what you come up with ... but, I don't need another rabbit hole to fall into ... :lol: ...!

CHEERS!

Yep, I've been thinking of making a couple for a few years now. I just don't have anywhere to run them.

...of course, I'll have to build two. Otherwise, Lori would make me sleep in the trailer for the rest of my life.

Okay, one for me ....two for you......that makes 3 more Cycle Karts in Canada? :thinking: That is half as many as are currently registered in Canada???? :thumbsup:
We would be noticed by the existing guys.....there are already 3 in B.C. :thumbsup:
