Towing a ride on mower

i hope he lives in flat lands

or

electric bike perhaps

Almost beats a tandem towing a Canadian canoe 🛶 I spotted in Windsor it was a long vehicle

Could quite well be an ebike, I've not inspected it closely enough. And yeah, we are flat enough around here. The steep bits don't have gardens on them.

 

Tandem and canoe sounds like a belter of a combo. I wonder if they could fit the bike and trailer in the boat with them though... that would really give you some options.

Stubby cuts particularly on top, un even side reduction points. Uneven shape. Looks a small easy tree

 

less than 18months experience he’s doing ok. Longer and he needs to pull his socks up

Scyamore reduction I did last year. 

 

Hard to do but not impossible to get out on the tips. 

 

After 22 years I still enjoy reduction the most, but do appreciate an additional climber on bigger trees

This Eucalyptus only took 2 hours with two climbers but I know if I did it on my own it would have taken the best part of a day.

That’s a very tidy result, but it is totally pointless.

Post a pic in 2 years time and tell me I’m wrong.

 

Does anyone actually try and educate the customer as to what a reduction will achieve?

[Mark Bolam]

I know the bit about earning us money, obviously.
