Ridewith Rod

Thanks Mick.

Wow, you've taken on a very detailed build there. looking great so far. Obviously quite skilled too. I'll be going a far more simple design route as i don't have ready access to lathes or mills, very frustrating for an ex fitter machinist, plus I like to build things quickly and play.
I was talking to a work mate a few years ago about getting a billykart derby happening out here in the north east but nothing happened as usual. I agree Vic park would be a good place to showcase if the numbers were there. It's tough building awareness for things when it's not a mainstream sport or interest.
I do Dragonboat racing for sport and am part of the recruiting and fundraising crew so we're trying to find new members and sponsors so understand how hard it can be. I'm also working on starting a podcast about all the fringe sports, with the aim of raising profiles and participation. Hopefully it goes well.
Hopefully your health picks up and the build can crack on.
