I think I saw a picture with people on it. Like 40 years ago.
looks like they don't use it much.

Looks like they rode it right in to the ground.

Sorry, I don't ride nuttin' that still has the training wheels attached. *lol*

It might say it seats 45, but I only see one actual seat....

Looks like it will take a good effort to get it started moving, from the sink in to the dirt look.

I wonder what the chain case looks like inside, if 45 people put their (momentary) 2hp per person at takeoff, that is close to 100hp the last few chain loops need to take. That probably needs heavier than 45 bike chain and sprockets.

If it gets loaded up with today's big people of 200# each, that's about 5000# on each main wheel, assuming it's a real bike and the outriggers are just for balance. Right....

There are stubs where a bicycle seat can be placed. I wonder how fast 45 people could get that thing moving?

I have noticed a lot of the "world's biggest" stuff is from up north. I suspect it's because they can't get out in the winter, so they make stuff BIG.

We get out during winter. There's ice fishing, snowmobiling, skiing, (down hill and cross country). That's the fun stuff. There's a lot of work to be done outside if you are a farmer and have animals to care for.

Yup, and then there's snow plowing, snow shoveling, insulating, thawing frozen pipes, thawing frozen fingers/toes/noses/ears/brains, etc, etc, etc.

Still, I'll never move back to the eternal Hotnation of Texas! *lol*
