Michelin report

[otherwise]

After running a Michelin "Awakee" for the last two years I've just gotta give it a big thumbs up.
My grand daughter gives it a 0.2 mtr arc at 60 rpm that calculates out to 7.2 km / hr.
She probably runs it about 10 hours a week so it's done about 7,500 km and was secondhand when I fitted it.
It's not showing any more wear than the day it came home, how good is that?

Well what can we say

That sure brings back memories of when I was a kid and we would tie and old tire to a tree like that and use it as a swing

Very cool. I don't see tire swings much any more.

Like Rocky said, brings back fond old memories.

We really did enjoy the simple things in life back then

That's because trees, rope and old tyres are sooo hard to come by.

If people can't BUY it then it mustn't be much good.

Boof, each time my grand daughter arrives I make her sign an indemnity.
Them little blood suckers aren't taken me to the cleaners.

Ahhh the simple things, rope hanging from a tree etc.
Last year I made a billy-cart for the grand kids, our youngest asked for it to be dragged out today at our Australia Day gathering. I honestly figured she would have forgotten about it as she is just three and she last saw it at the end of last summer.

Nice job on the cart, not sure who is having more fun

Gotta say, I made the cart, I even painted it ... BUT ... I didn't pick the colour or apply the feathers.
