Nice car. And I'm liking that green convertible behind it.

That Austin Healy Sprite was also nicknamed a Spridget. The Sprite and the MG Midget were essentially the same.

YUP ! I like the Sprite better though.

We have an Intensive Care Doctor in Edmonton who goes to work at the hospital like this. He tows a canoe behind his bike from home to the river. He then detaches the wheels from the canoe, throws the wheels and his bike on top of the canoe, and then paddles down the river. When he's gone as far as he can on the river, he comes ashore, puts the wheels back on the canoe and rides to work - it takes him 2 hours. In the winter, he obviously ditches the canoe but he still rides his bike to work - even in -30 degrees Celsius. It is amazing what some people can do - I can't even imagine doing it!!!!

I want to setup Stance E2 so I can carry a kayak but still have a quick release rear wheel. Also have it not effect my off road performance when I take it off.

TA- DA!

I must maintain a high average speed to keep up with her.

Car of the day?
How about this convertible. Maybe a Buick Wildcat? Don’t know the year. The interior was shiny gold like the outside.

Don't know Buick's as well as some other models, but I am going to guess mid 60's because of strait body lines and trim... maybe '62 to '66 range. Could google it, but more fun to guess.

I rode out earlier today to the Piper Creek community vegetable gardens where my wife and I rent a couple of med sized plots. This timber framed barn which was erected by Rethink Red Deer and a local timber framing guild last year is somewhat of a marvel to look at. It used to be the site of an old barn which was ultimately torn down and this structure was built in its place. It’s also a host to quite a creative pollinator habitat.

The fellow driving/ cycling this rig said it was his maiden voyage on this 1500 watt motored trike that he had imported from Toronto. It looks like it is made of molded plastic.
