we used to be allowed to circuit race if you had 2 pairs of jeans on.

I think the piece we are missing the most is the belt that went around the rider , with loop handles for the passenger to hang on to....

I hope it has a quick release to ditch the tagalong if they act up!

Serious question about show bikes.  Pertaining to the chicken strip removal tool...

Before showing a bike - do the owners scrub the tires first?  Every tire I've ever mounted has those little nipples all over the tread blocks - can't imagine they keep those on the tire prior to showing it.

  WARNING... You dont want to slide down the road in Dickies.
 I went down on the flattrack wearing Dickie work pants. Got a bad friction burn, as well as smacking my knee hard... Took a really long time to heal, due to the burn.. Got infected too.
Of course the pants didnt get a hole, but all the heat went right thru into my skin
 I think i would have come out better in jeans.

Now I have to check the tags on my old navy dickie looking lowers. They feel more like jeans but one can never be sure.
