Hummer H16 "Like nothing else"
 
Started spring cleaning the backyard to make improvements, including privacy screen on the chain link fence, garden beds, leveling low spots, deck, shed, lighting, plants, etc...Today, I removed a big wheel plastic tricycle that has been a lawn ornament for the last year++ back there. I took it to my garage and disassembled then dropped it into my recycle can piece by piece, and cut the frame in half with a reciprocating saw. I told the wife I cleared that piece of plastic from the backyard and suddenly felt the temperature rise. Back and forth she agreed our grandson only rides his radio flyer red rider tricycle as I insisted he was old enough(3-1/2yrs) to ride on a 2 wheel bike! ({{{{Hold my beer}}}}, I searched CL and found a bike close to me for $40. my wife called and the seller said he would meet halfway in a walgreens parking lot, he loaded into her truck and now it's inside my garage for our grandson to enjoy for many years to come. Grandson jumped on and rode for a bit and after I sprayed with lubricant spray to soak overnight and will restore like new tomorrow.

Happy Wife, Happy Life!:cool:

When I showed it to him he said "like papa's car". :rolleyes: No, young grasshopper, I drive a truck!;)
Spent a few hours cleaning, lubricating, polishing, etc...Also did some google searching for replacement parts only to find this bike was a limited edition to 1 of 1230 and no original parts to be found. Also, got a FREE set of from my Amazon Vine, that light up when in motion. All done and sitting in front of the fireplace to dry.

Vine sent me that I installed on the rear. Then sent me only needed 1 installed on the front.
Next issue was my grandson kept slipping off the original pedals, Vine sent me a set of .
However, the pedals are 9/16" the cranks are 1/2". Vine sent me to secure the pedals to the cranks.
All set ready to go with the training wheels coming off soon. :cool:
