New Xtracycle

my new xtracycle arrived yesterday!!!

incredibly fast

they sent new mounting hardware too, and a kick stand which is sweet

l’m not going to set it up until l get the final version of my frame from Spencer, and my fork arrives from the nether-regions of ebay and the interweb

for now l am riding the old one, l welded it back together (did a pretty good job too) and added gussets at the failure point

my plan for it at this point is to set up with a custom lumber rack / chainsaw holder for my friend Tom’s off-the-grid cabin/commune/sustanble organic subsistence farm

it would be too selfish to just box it up as a spare
here is a picture of it all shiny and new, and a picture of the broken one and my repair
