Some of you asked for a few pics of the coveted CORK TOP Traction Pad. Well...here they are.
My buddy has been riding it all summer and it has held up fine. Home Depot or your local Hardware store around 5 or 6 bucks, add some spray-on 3M adhesive too. It seems to work fine......I'll stick to grip tape for now!

| What's the point? 2 sheets of griptape costs 5 or 6 bucks. does this guy really prefer cork to grip?

Does there need to be a point? I think it was pretty simple....Look around the garage....hey, let's see if this stuff will work.....hey, it was free, works pretty good and has lasted all year!

Feedback is good...but you are missing it. The idea is to share the idea! Listen, I don't ride this stuff, but its an original idea that works for him. We live on a lake and ride probably 5 days a week, who cares how "ugly" it is, LOL, just the point that it works is good for me. Besides....he's not "stompin9's" on it!
Peace -CK
