This summer, I'll work on creating an official thread for our group build and and make up a badge or two, If anyone has any ideas for a badge, feel free to make make it up

Ken,

I was glancing through some online shops just lookin and came across the Bat Pod. Even though it's fictious, would you accept that? If not I can find something else.

Actually, It seems to be more reall than you might think. there are a few pics on google that look like a real one. But anyhow, It's allowed, it does look pretty cool.

I've been trying to decide on what limitations to go with. remember the 3 wheelers? than there where the quads. I will say definitly no enclosurres for the riders. I am goingh to go with a limited number of wheels. I'm just not sure how many at moment.

Dare one ask...

What for the 'white space' in your reply, there, Steve? No criticism or offense implied...but it did seriously make me think there was something wrong with my phone, until I saw it on the PC screen.Embarrassed

Watching your video of Hilts ( Steve McQueen)  trying to escape, I could hear the music in my head. Does that mean I've watched the movie too many times? Personally, I don't think so. Hmm, I just got a Phillips 55 inch smart tv. This sounds like it should be the next show I play on it.

Anyhow, The official build page will be coming soon. Sorry for the delays.

i’ve got a few kits in the stash but have yet to pick one. Can’t make up my mind.
