You`ve had some good advice here Mark but for what it`s worth I would rig up a block and tackle to the beams of your garage. In the long run it`s going to save your back. Oh and you might think about wearing your helmet 24/7.

ignacio, the forum cop, had asked me to be nice to you ladies and I thought, you know, he`s right I should settle down a bit. After all I am a newbie around here and I should show some respect. But then we have the stylish endeavors of FuzzyRider2 and his gymnastic parking lot dismounts and I...
