Title: Want to see something that sucks?
Post by: JackL on April 06, 2007, 05:10:25 PM
Ok, so I thought I had a big clump of sawgrass stuck in my rear from my last ride.
Looking closer, I realise it is not a plant!

So I'm cutting away with dykes. It really sucks. That crap is wrapped tight!!

Ten minutes of clipping and cutting my hands:

yeah i know that sucks. happened to me before on a dirtbike and got all tangled around the sprocket real tight and couldnt move

and one time my buddie was driving his mud truck over a chain link fence in his truck and about 30 feet of it got wrapped around his driveshaft perfectly and broke the u-joint

that was about 6 monthes ago and the truck is still in the woods right where he left it

What a mess--I would  have loved to have seen the expression on your face when you found out what it was all wrapped up on your axle. I know what mine would have been and what I would have said lol. You got the right idea in bringing out the BIG GUNS. Is that copper, steel or both?

I honestly couldn't believe my eyes. I must have rode 30 miles with that in there.
The expression came when I realised if I tied a chain to it and yanked in all likelihood it would mess up the bike!! It is galvanised. I wish it was copper, it is like $3.50 a LB. :)
