:eek:This is sooo wrong!! It should be served with sour cream and strawberry, not "lingonberry" (swedish name, wrong berry). Oh dear, my poor heart:o

At least the flag was right! :D:D:D

Cool Worksman Low Gravity bike. What a waste. Wonder what he does with it when he's through.....

Notice there at the last, the music is going, but not the generator.

I'm not a chicken expert, but I thought they sort of had to have peace and quiet to lay.

Suggestion: Work with the trikes, not the bikes. The Low Gravity bike has a big front kickstand that will support the bike, but still has to be put in place. With the trikes, you just stop and there you are.

This was put together as a joke/film deal, not to sell waffles. I assume you could get some sort of waffle maker that wasn't electric, run directly off propane, and that would simplify the operation considerably.

Worksman actually sells a 4-wheeler as well, with front platform and rear basket, and it would have worked better for the waffle operation- just wouldn't look as cool.

By the way, the shotguns, homemade or fake or not, are a good way to get arrested while riding an otherwise goofy bike around.

The shotgun is needed to defend oneself as I would be one of the first to shoot at the noise making machine.

Just watched this for the third time. When he pulls out the whipped cream, he has one of the screw lids off an oxygen bottle over the whipped cream. Great!

Well, now I can finally say I know of an worthwhile use for the New YorK Times.
