Yeah, my photography skills are definitely lacking, sorry. Thank you for the compliment though

Yeah, well, nothing like a well aged idea

I have to fiddle with the settings a bit more, the supports were not that great, but the result is okay, I guess.

Und dann fährt er in der Szene auch noch eine fürchterlich teure Replik.

It's just like that. Since you can't really lean into a corner, like you would without a side car, you have to pull on the bars. The force needed and the feeling, especially when driving a tight turn at slow speed, is similar to driving a Go Kart. You have a direct connection to the front wheel, no gears or anything between you and the rubber.

Then there is the whole topic about asymmetry. When accelerating the side car will delay so everything will tend to steer to the right. Same thing when decelerating, or even letting off the throttle, except it will go to the left. The brakes are another topic about asymmetry. Which wheel is attached to which brake lever? There really is not an objectively correct way.

I had to reshuffle quite a bit to get it into my garage. Up until the end I was not sure whether it would fit properly.

Yes, first time with a side car. The first few kilometres I was terrified. But I knew what I got myself into so it was expected. The last few kilometres were already a blast.

For me it's neither riding a bike nor driving a car. It's so different and it's awesome. I can't wait to get back on my three wheeler.

 

Stunning weather, a touch chilly though, and 150 km ride back home. Just enough to get comfortable with the sidecar. Ural cT 2022.

Scheißverein!

 

I wanted to go for a desert camo look for these two and after some dry brushing over speed paint I am quite satisfied. Dry pigments on the legs will always look good too.

 

The lance for the "play this first" scenario from the starter box is painted and ready. I wanted to go for an "urban night battle camo" look but the metallics turned out a bit too shiny I guess. I still like the result.

I want to build myself a spine tester to calculate the spine value of arrow shafts using the ASTM F2031 standard. I do know that I need a 880 gram weight and that I have to measure the amount of flex that the shaft produces when I hang said weight at the center of a 28 inch span off the shaft.

Well, but what then? I can measure the amount of deflection I have then but let's say the shaft is deflected by 1/12th of an inch or some millimetres. How do I calculate a spine value that ranges between 20 to 80 from that?

Can anybody give me a hint or solution?
