This summer ~ a new recumbent record??? 2

In July Greg Kolodziejzyk will make a world record attempt by trying to ride a recumbent 3,000 miles. This is different. His route is from Victoria, Canada to Hawaii. But, there are no roads. That is correct. Greg will pedal across the ocean. His world-record attempt is expected to take between 40 to 80 days.

A Trailer for Fargo ~ DIY [Safety Triangle] 3

51JyLOjrPwL._SS400_ I will use this safety triangle [Nathan Magnetic L.E.D. Clip-On Light (Yellow)] on my trailer, mounting it on the appendage I added to the rear of the trailer to hold the fender that will be used for the small solar panels for the DiNotte Tail Lights.

I prefer the size and color of this triangle versus the much larger [16" x 14"] SMV [Slow Moving Vehicles] Emblem required of vehicles that use the roadway, but travel less than 25 mph [bicycles exempted].

Product Dimensions: 11.8 x 9 x 0.2 inches ; 2.6 ounces

I’ll receive it Wednesday, 03/03 [now Tuesday 03/02] and get pics up late p.m.
