FYI kickstands and soil

Postby Shytown » Mon May 31, 2010 8:41 am

we all know Kickstands and soil do not mix well, but a electrical cover box serves the purpose of not having to pick up your bike from falling over, of course a small piece of plywood, use your imagination, i thought of this for those of you going to the campground and potentially having to park in grass or something, i have never been there and throw this out there so we do not have a domino affect with all our bikes, as it would be funny looking back after a few years, but when it happened i know i would not be laughing, well maybe at Tito :)

A crushed beer can works well too. I suppose a soda can would work just as well but I've never tried one.
We live for this.

I think the sugar content would weaken the can! LOL

Better then the domino effect is all the Rockers seem to park their bikes right next to their tents. With the rain falling the way it did I was expecting to here someone screaming to come get their bike off of them! :) But we all survived with not tip overs. Not only that two days of riding on wet grass makes for some good handling skills! :D

Hmmm maybe another Rockers item to print up on aluminum sheet and sell to feed our insatiable beer lust...
