Get the 4 in. round one. It will fit in most pockets.
I always follow the rules.
The only exception to the rule occurs when I make an exception to the rule not to make an exception to the rule and that only occurs under exceptional circumstances.

Here, build your own for $1.50.

I wonder how much the magic lessons cost to teach you how to build a flat piece of plastic from an aluminum can though? :laughing:

Just don't forget to pick it up when you leave though or attach a line to it to yank it up when you are sitting on your bike and ready to go. A couple of MSF instructor/mechanics had a good laugh tonight telling us about the guys they've seen trying to get the bike off themselves when it fell on them cause they were trying to get their side stands off the coasters and the balancing act didn't work.

(You could always just get CNF's version though and not have to worry about retrieving it plus enjoy making it in the first place.)
Ya right, :wink: there are only 2 kinds of bikes: It's a Ninja... look that one's a Harley... oh there's a Ninja... Harley...Ninja...

Build your own for free.

Go to the nearest dump, look for an old aluminium highway sign, cut a piece off (in some sort of nice geometrical shape), drill a hole in one side, attach a leather lace to it so you don't have to bend over to pick it up because you hook it on your handle bar. :santa:

Go into the kitchen when the wife is not around and take the top off of a pot that she does not use much. The one I got is about a foot in diameter and perfectly flat. The handle goes in the ground and does a great job of anchoring it in the dirt.
