Ulysses 2017 AGM Grand Parade at Port Macquarie
Grand Parade Photos.
Lots of people wanted photographs and some wanted a ride. A few of us obliged. This is Silvia from Sydney who is one of the leather stands at the AGM.
This little fella, Chloe, has travelled around Australia a few times now raising funds for arthritus.
Port Macquarie
Prototype mudguard on the Trike.
I saw this was I was away in Port Macquarie. So I’ve given ago. This is actually my second attempt. The first was about an inch away from the ground but when I sat on it, it was very close to the ground and it threw sand and gravel continuously showering me and brushing the road, the exact opposite of what I was looking for.
So its now about an inch and a half above the ground when I’m sitting on it. Yet to give it a go.
Parts List
- Spray Suppressor brush (from a truck guard in a half circle shape, I just straightened the piece I needed)
- Aluminium checker plate (Bunnings)
- Sail Track (Bunnings)
- 2 x T-Bolt Clamps (Truck supply place)
- Small stainless steel strap about 50mm each, I used a spare clamp which I cut with tin snips.
- 5 pop rivets
Process and Info
The clamp holds the s/s strap bent at right angles and pop riveted to the checker plate.
The checker plate is pop riveted to the checker plate
Tools
13mm ring spanner for the mudguard bolts. It was easier to remove the whole mudguard.
10mm for the T-Bolt
Ulysses ride to a private farm machinery museum.
Day trip ride to a private farm machinery museum on the Monto road. There was a very nice looking 1937 Dodge Business Coupe and lots of tractors.
