    Hi,

    Hammmerboy here. (aka David, Odin's dad)

    Well, first off, thanks for all the compliments on the sidecar bike and Odin. It's nice to see how people react to it... One of the things that I like most is how it has about a 96.5% success rate for putting smiles on peoples faces!

    Also, yes, he sometimes appears to drag his tail, which he fact in uses as a rudder, to try and steer me in the direction of a potential source of food.

    He LOVES 'his' bike, and often jumps aboard without me even saying we're going for a ride.

    Sorry, I don't actually own a flatbed truck, so you're thinking of someone else.

    perhaps we should be wearing helmets...

    This is the prototype of what I hope to build more of in the future, so, if you're interested, let me know! ;-)

    Have a good day!
  • Glad you found the post about you! I'll have to keep an eye out for you two!

    Gotta love Odin (his 'other' ride is the back of a whole flatbed truck!)
