That is one of the funniest things I have read in a while’s. Thanks for the laugh.

What would that do that a rear paddock stand wouldn’t do?

I am by nature lazy and I have one million other things I could do at the cottage that I don’t get around to So I am predisposed to buy something if it’s close in price. An aluminum ramp would be more versatile than a bespoke one too. I think I’d like to buy something like the first one...

Ah, but I wouldn't have discovered the new love of my life. I'm thinking about buying a ramp. With the price of pressure-treated lumber these days... I'm guessing a 4' wide, 5' long ramp would be about 60$? Prices of some used ramps on Kijiji are not much more than that, and no work and no...

Mine is a 6x12 aluminum utility trailer. According to the company website it weighs 655lbs. I don't think the weight of the trailer is the problem - it's the way the ramp sticks up so high. At speed I believe it acts as a giant sail. I wouldn't be surprised if similarly sized enclosed...

I have two utility trailers of different sizes, and I'm still thinking about buying something like this, but one that can haul 3 dirt bikes. 3 dirt bikes requires my bigger trailer and that thing just kills fuel economy - probably halves it, if I'm lucky. It's the long ramp that's the...

I was hobbled for about 36-h. Seriously, could barely walk after rolling, cutting, and stacking logs, and bending over to do so. That's just with a mid-range saw with just a 20" bar weighing only about 14 lbs. And what was I did was comparatively nothing to what a pro could accomplish. I...

To put that in perspective, at 65mph you need the length of one Canadian football field to stop. At 110mph, it's about 2-1/2 football fields. That is ... insane.

In our neck of the woods, most of it is hardwood. We have very little softwood on our property. The logs stacked here is just a fraction of the wood I have to cut. There is no shortage of hardwood. Sometimes I pull a few wagon loads of wood to an elderly neighbour who burns firewood. Our...

LOL. I could probably build a fun trials course on my property with all the terrain afforded by Canadian Shield grant and the newly downed trees providing a nearly unlimited source of free lumber. Neighbours probably wouldn't be thrilled though.

Halfway between Orillia and Gravenhurst. Let me know when you plan to show up. If you want to help me clear fallen trees and branches, bonus.

I'm worried the drop will be too steep and that will cause its own traction problems - not so much for the bike, but for me. Once it starts going down, I'll need to be able to control it and that might be challenging as I try to walk it down a steep grade. I'm happy to build something that...

Don't know who Hammond is... I'm guessing the host? I don't watch Top Gun Gear, so wouldn't know how old that puts that episode at.

It's only a 20' container. ;) There are cloaking materials that have been demonstrated that are the size of the LED panels that their "cloak" was constructed of. So they could have worked with one of those companies working on that technology. But that wouldn't have been as funny.

It would have been cool if they did the corrections to sort out the perspective issues - either in software or with an additional optical element which applied the required correction. Or better yet, if they had used some of the actual cloaking materials and technologies that are out there. It...

That's gotta cause some problems at intersections.

I've done this. I was loading my trailer with our sleds. Instead of turning the trailer around with my car, I unhitched the trailer, turned my car around and then rotated the trailer into position, but neglected to rehitch. Rode the first sled onto the trailer and yup - drove the trailer...

I've seriously considered painting it to blend in with the background or make it somehow otherwise more attractive. As with just about everything else, a Google search reveals that there are no original ideas left. The page I took that image from has lots of ideas to prettify a container...

I dropped my Multi the first day I had it. It was a 7-h drive from QC to bring the bike home. Once I got it there, I just wanted to be done and get the trailer back to U-haul so I rushed getting it of. I should have stopped and asked for help next door when I started backing it up and...
