I remember those bike carriers. It was an idiotic idea. I once saw a guy try to back one up. The bike immediately went sideways, laid over and he twisted the whole front end. Trying to go cheap on a bike carrier cost him a bundle of money. That said, the smoke is IMPRESSIVE. I think we need to go to that campsite a couple of miles back…

What are we looking at, and why? Looks like someone made a clever set of ramps for working on their car. Not too sure the concrete blocks are a good idea, but it seems to have passed the test of time. And the tire bumpers, great idea! Took me a few seconds to figure out what it is, then I thought that's pretty clever as long as they filled the blocks with concrete. Yeah, some left over materials, an hour or 2 to build, & a 5 minute oil change without dragging out a jack or ramps. Long term time convenience. , I don't recommend driving onto it after the 3d beer. I drive & shoot about my best at 2.5 to 3 beers thank you. But about 3.5 the wheels start to fall off for some reason. Either that, or it's Duke boys time.

Had one of those built on my grandparents farm, referred to it as the grease ramp. We'd pull the old dozer and tractor up on there for oil changes as well as greasing the crawler bearings. That ramp setup was 6 feet tall.

What are we looking at, and why? I'm looking at a little blue box with a question mark in it. Most of OldMan's meme postings come thru on my computer like that. No one else. Apparently we are just not compatible.....
