We're gonna have to take away your man card !!! You went ahead & bought the girl's model without the horizontal man bar so you won't catch your skirt on it !!! Where on it do you hang your purse ? There goes all those calories burned with all that turkey hunting walking exercise your gonna miss.

Lol There will come a day when I won't be able to lift my leg up high enough to thow over a man bike, so I planned ahead. Plus, with a climber strapped on rear rack, I won't have to lean the bike and over-balance it to get on it. Purse will be bungeed to front rack..lol Thank God For Your Blessings!

I had already tried riding an old fashioned nut buster bike with all my tree swinging gear, so I knew that was not going to work out. Another big reason was that in those days I was keeping my scent as low as possible and the e-bike allowed me to get very close without breaking a sweat. I was taking scent control to extreme in those days, even wearing a “burner” tshirt that I ziplocked and changed once in the tree. Swishing my mouth with peroxide every hour or so. It absolutely worked, but it was work. Then a few years ago my drive to chase the big bucks just about disappeared. Now I hunt stinky again and if they walk downwind its over. Full circle. Back to taking does for the freezer. Bucks are the result of luck. http://www.mgnbd.com/

That’s a big reason guys get froze out of the tree. Get soaked with sweat walking in. Only way to prevent is carry some clothes or ride a bike , Yes I got the boys version

You should look at these gun racks that I installed, best racks I've seen. Also you might want to find a Hawk game cart to pull behind your bike. Saddlebags are almost a must for a spare chain, tools, rain jacket, snacks/drinks, first-aid kit, cable & lock. Looks like you have a really nice start on modifying your bike already. A guy can cover miles in no time at all while turkey hunting. And the best part of it is turkeys aren't scared of the bike if you hop off it real quick and leave it right in the middle of the fire trail and get set up for Mr. Long Beard.
