Subject: Wildwood quote, Buggy Questions

Hello all...I have a couple of questions regarding buggying...but
first...my favorite quote from Wildwood: "the buggy is a modest craft" by
Corey Jensen, when talking with Corey and Jason Benedict about the rules
for being given the priviledge to purchase a buggy naked pin  <G>.

The questions I have could probably have been answered at one of the buggy
workshops held on Saturday which I thought were cancelled due to the high
wind, anyway...

I have a Force 10 Buggy (also referred to as a Shapson buggy) and am not
sure of things like optimal tire pressure, care of bearings, seat and main
tube (not sure what its called...the tube that connects the seat portion
to the front fork) adjustments, etc.  If there is a manual for it, and
someone has one, I would really appreciate a copy.

If there is no manual and a few of the seasoned buggyiers have some
suggestions for tire pressure, bearing lubricant, correct installation of
the main tube and etc. I would really appreciate your input.  After
spending an entire afternoon with Corey and friends you'd think I would of
asked a few things....just too caught up in actually buggying I guess.

I'm sure some other questions will arise but for now if someone has some
advise on the above I'd be happy if you would share it with me.

For those of you that have not tried buggying and are tired of hearing
people talk about it....try it!  Its addicting!  If you are apprehensive
about asking...don't be!  I'm always happy to turn over the handles of my
kite and buggy (I don't think any buggyier would say no, I flew every
buggy engine I could while at Wildwood, just for asking) for anyone that
wants to give it a whirl.  By no stretch am I pro but I can give you a few
pointers on getting going and the rest is up to you.  Don't be shy...ask
me and you'll be hooked, like me.

I guess thats about it for now.  Hello to all the people I met at
Wildwood...I'm good with faces, lousy with names.

Cool Breezes,
Paul Richard
