kamikaze passanger

Party Time

Justin and I took out the Chariot last night to a good old Berkeley College party! 

Loaded with enough Colt 45 beers to kill a horse, we blazed the beast into the night without any lights, stealth style running from the heat under the radar....

The beast worked great and the ride is so smooth on the chariot seat (not shown in picts)  but on the way home we came across some railroad tracks and one of the quick release bolts holding the chariot broke in half sending me on to a unknown journey into traffic...

Lucky no cars were harmed in this breakage, O yeah no one got hurt either.

this picture doesnt have the cranks and seat

Good old Schwinn Approved wheels

Chariot build day 2

I haven't put to much time in to the project maybe 5 hours now, my goal was one day of work but now I am on a second day.....

either way, I want to make sure that it goes out the door and goes out the door with some style.

So now you get the point minus the 26" wheels
The tube that hooks to the bike isn't attached to the chariot yet, its sitting really high being held by the PARK stand, just for photos

Since she can pedal it, it needed a Bottom Bracket
But.... I figured down the road it may be used without the BB so its removable
Note for the Techies - its a 68mm!!! ha ha

Score of the day!!!
$20 replacement Aluminum hitch from REI off a tag-along bike
I couldn't have made anything look that good for 20 bucks.
