i guess this is another time i failed to transfer info. you can always find a scsb booth and the blackberry festival. along with several of thier bikes. lets plan for next year to join them. its pretty easy. been there done that. and besides there wasnt a single A-prill-eea there. i dont think ive seen one there actually. we could do a group ride down. all inclusive. and yeah thanks for the pics. i took two cameras and found nothing. i love the old fords. did your boys make it to the top? | |

They made it to the top of the easy one (hit the button to ring a bell at the top), and about 2/3 of the way up the medium one. At that point, the wall is missing one of those grabby things (that's a technical term), and I think that made it too difficult for them. I think an adult could make it, but for kids that missing grabby thing makes it too long of a reach to another one they could get hold of. They both tried several times and always got stuck at that point. It's kind of a gyp that they let kids climb it with that piece missing. The lady told me no one has ever made it up the hard one. A girl tried while we were there and only made it up about five feet. They're all small and round on that one, impossible to hold onto unless you've got fingers like the Hulk. Eric (my oldest boy) tried it once and made it up about half way. Last edited by Pony Trekker; 08-18-2009 at 01:54 PM.. | |
