Electric Dirt Bike!

More power of a Honda CRF150, weighs 100 pounds LESS, but silent .   This bike is extremely powerful. This is not a toy!

It begins with a 19+ horsepower (14,400 watt) electric vehicle motor and programmable controller.  The power is stored in a special quick-change power pack that can deliver up to 600 amps. Then it’s wrapped in the lightest handcrafted aluminum frame made in the USA. The design is so revolutionary, that we are patent pending on 3 patents.

Ride anywhere with no gas, no pollution, no engine to wear out and it costs less than a penny a mile to ride.

Chewie?! Is that you?

Chybucca1 Chewie?! Is that you?

Chybucca, as you can see, is an area of the A30 close by to Truro, but what many people don’t know is that the name was the inspiration for the character Chewbacca in the Star Wars films. George Lucas, who of course wrote the films, had a favourite uncle who lived in Mithian, near St. Agnes, and spent many summers staying in the area as a young man. The relatively strange Cornish name stuck with the young boy from Los Angeles and when naming his Star Wars characters, he struck on the idea of naming Han Solo’s giant wookie cohort Chybucca. However, producers insisted it be changed to Chewbacca as an easier name for American audiences to read and say. And so Chybucca became Chewbacca and a small corner of Cornwall finds itself forever linked to one of the greatest movies of all time.

It’s a dog’s life

September 26, 2006 By 9 Comments

I don’t know if this is funny or the saddest thing I have ever seen. The imploring and pleading eyes of the poor mutt as it realises that the owner it has so loyally served for all of these years is actually a complete cretin, whose idea of a good time is to dress his pooch up in this snazzy number. Either that or the dog is actually a champion speed skater and the get-up is all about aerodynamics.

I’ve decided now, it is funny.dog%20suit Its a dogs life
