We are home now and so the next step is to look at the practicality of having the SlingShot.
You can see from the, image below; we have a small garage on the left of the picture.
This was built some time ago and is not wide enough to house a SlingShot.
The shaded area, behind the garage and small silver car is extremely steep, so much that it is not possible to dive a SlingShot up it without running the risk of taking off the front of the machine. After consultation with the technical department of Polaris Britain, it became obvious to me that this was going to have to change.
The conclusion was: knock down the garage, reduce the slope of the driveway, remove the hedge on the left edge of the picture, tarmac (in American English, I think you call it Asphalt) the lower area at bottom of the picture and place a bigger garage on it. This would have additional advantages for us, as it would make control of motorcycles, at the top of our drive, much more easy and also allow us generally more room for vehicles. It would also allow easy access, via the porch in the corner of the house. So why not also develop this area into a better entrance?
Oh well the cost of all this is going to be substantially more than that of the SlingShot.......
Who said this was going to be cheep?
