Hahahaha…..yo dudes!

I tell ya…I am stoked as hell at all these winch ideas. Mini-bike winch, go-kart-winch, older-brother on bicycle winch…….. Honestly!! It reminds me of my favorite TV show. The A-TEAM!!!! Building a tank from nothing, etc…. I think that it is cool as hell. We were stoked to ride, and we found a place. Necessity is the mother of invention….

This weekend, for instance, I got the hankering to build a winch. I went to home depot and saw that the bottom of a shopping-kart could make a cheap frame.

I would love to see a winch building contest, similar to biker build-off. That would be cool.

I would also love to see the winch-Saddle. A saddle that you mount on a horse attached to a ski rope. With this saddle, some rope, and a long-ass whip, you’ve be off to the races…..literally. hahaha!!!

Keep kickin’ ass and keepin’ it real!!!

jonnyUTAH, The A-Team was great...

I'm going to have to go with the Macgyver winch, it will be built out of a piece of bubble gum, the wrapper and a pile of left over dog hair Laughing


Oh... and it will tow at mach speed!

Three words.... "Dog Sled Winch."

For a Torque-Converter, I'll just use a whip....meaning, if the dogs aren't running at an idle speed, they get whipped......hahahah (jk I love animals; I would never hurt them.....unless they are made of delicious meat).

I thought about trying the horse idea with our horses but I was thinking maybe two horses and use a wester saddle so you can just tie the rope to the knob.
