What aa pain. The photo didn't load. Sorry I'm not to computer savy.

Yeah Roc, I was having the same problem, and found out they have size limits here on pics, no more than 700px wide, and max file size 300K. You can use one of the apps in WMP (Windows Media Player) to resize. (if you use windows) I too am kind of tech-illiterate.

put it on photobucket etc and then add a link.

I use the phish re-sizer, it gives you three options for re-sizing including a 640 option, which forums and craigslist handles pretty well. you can usually down load it for free.

Hopefully we will see that buggy soon!

Ok I got the pics on. I think I need to have my kids do this for me next time. I believe a root cannal is easier!

Nice buggy roc, I believe we should call it the Dragon buggy in lieu of the skull on your fork!

rocfighter - 22-11-2009 at 10:51 AM

Thanks Dakitez, I still need to figure this photo stuff out I guess!
Drakose! :flaming:

DAKITEZ - 22-11-2009 at 10:56 AM

you were almost there. You got them on photobook ... then all you need to do is copy the IMG code and paste in on your post.

rocfighter - 22-11-2009 at 11:17 AM

Oh just that simple? :dunno:
Thanks again.

Very nice! Let's see a close up of the skull.

Nice looking buggy, 313 in the hall of fame

Thanks Popeye, This means a lot. I got most of my ideas from your web sites. I think I used pieces of at least 5 sets of plans!

Rad ride Roc! How much seat time so far, I have only 15 minutes in my new homemade, no winds or from the wrong direction. Hopefully get the full blast on sat, planning a trip to Wild Wood! Good luck and may the winds be with you!

rocfighter - 23-11-2009 at 04:52 PM

Thanks, I have no time riding yet. Just sitting and wishing. No wind here for a while. And they just spread manure on my local feild. Farm country you know?That would be a crappy ride!

shehatesmyhobbies - 24-11-2009 at 02:11 PM

Whattt? fresh country air and you are not willing to ride. J/K. We are trying to get access to a large farm field now. Next going to try at the little private air park/museum around the corner from here. Not many planes come in and out and they have large enough runways that go east and west and also north and south.

The lack of winds and the soaked ground is killing me, serious withdraws!

rocfighter - 24-11-2009 at 06:59 PM

Well it rained here for a couple of days. So if the wind blows tomorrow I will try the manure field! It should be washed in a bit by now! Just in case I may try a full face helmet.
This field is used for hay so off limits most of the spring and summer. But they second cut it the week before Labor day. So after then it is open to us lucky niebors.

Sweet!!! ATC70 forks and tire! My atc70 buggy is coming right along.. post pics tomorrow!

Yup that old thing was sitting in the woods for years at my old house. When I moved here I just new I would find a use for it. So amist objections I braught it along.
See honey I did use it :lol:
