Thought I would post this one.

for the last couple of months / years I always seem to be on my knees polishing/ fettling /fixing /maintaining my bikes on my knees.

I did buy one of these kneeling pads. but still got fed up with other parts of my body on cold concrete.

THE ANSWER

found an old cheap polystyrene surf board of my sons lurking in my shed Ideal for on the ground on the knees / type back jobs. just thought i would share this with you.

happy surfing


looking 4ward 2 avebury...

Or a cheap foam camping mattress, one either side of the bike, works too

or motocross knee armour

Or if your really rich, a servant to do it for you.

Strap on knee pads, like carpet layer's use are great, particularly on a concrete floor!

Also useful for asking Jak out for a date!!

hey,,,,,

i just sit on a bucket, or my fav back home was a beer crate on my skateboard,

I have a pair of knee pads from when i used to skate halfpipe, they come in handy for mini moto too

i also have a pile of packing pallets and a ramp that i top with a strip of ply wood that i put the bike on when working on it. cost me nothing and makes things so mush easyer as the bike is about 18" off the ground and when stiin on the bucket it is just right.

Just hardcore laying on the ground ... or on my knees,
































that is, to work on the REX eejj

An ABBA stand is a worthwhile investment if you have dodgy knees.... Or even if you don't!
