Many years ago my grandmother bought one of those.  Honestly, the most difficult bike to pedal that I have ever tried.  Perhaps things have changed?

Well you can't take one hand off the handle ,toodal along. Not in a gated gravel road application.
But I am getting the feel for it.
It has sure improved my travel over those long flat gated road. And saves me a lot of scouting time.

I think I would prefer this setup.......... stealth bike but still classed as "non-motorized" in most areas including national parks.

you might look into getting some over sized tires for it, that should help a little with the handling.  Other than that maybe a bag for your head, so no one can prove it was you riding it :)

My buddies laughed it up. Until I passed them on the 40 minute hike out and sat for 30 minutes drinking a cold Pepsi :chuckle: at the truck until they caught up.

Im jealous up to taking that thing up a hill.  If you could get gearing on that thing  :IBCOOL:.  Idk about you but all of my hunts involve going up hill on the way in, so being able to load that thing up with meat for the trip out ... WOOO!

That's a hell of a rig  :tup: maybe you can find a kit for it so you can shift ? I bet you could manipulate that off of a old mountain bike! I have some extra old mountain bikes you can have to try

Might be able to hook a few trailers behind that thing.  Get some practice at the Sedro parade coming up.  It won't quite be the Shriners set up, but it will work.
Cut em!
