The EAA should allow us to use our folding bikes at Airventure

I'd put a motor
on my bike, so I could get around. And the flight line isn't that
packed with pedestrians, there's more than enough room for a folding
bike. Now I can see why the rules never get changed, as soon as it's
tried, everyone defends anything Poberenzy and crowd want to issue as
law.


On the other hand, if you're a pilot or careful person with a bike on a
ramp with low activity, that isn't a problem, but that doesn't exactly
describe Oshkosh, does it?

I was wondering when the last time he was to Oshkosh (maybe 1956 or
so???) where the flightline wasn't crowded with pedestrians. I've been
there pretty much every year since 1975 and it always seems too crowded
to try and weave a bike through the crowd (assuming you ride the bike on
the pavement and not row to row sneaking between planes, which I agree,
would not thrill me when my plane is parked there). I don't think we're
all sheep following the leader at all...as Kyle says who wants a bike
(especially motorized) running around their airplane???
