Prof. Tony Smith I way 105 KG if you get Carmens weight I am sure a man of your arithmitical talents can nut this one out.
Karmen has already provided her weight for the purpose of these calculations. I propose that the experiment would better demonstrate the theorem if I were to give the whole contraption a push start from the top roundabout of Corowa's main st, AND THEN jump onto the rear axle pegs of the bike (I'm 6'5" and heavier than you). Your expectation of reaching the river does not seem possible looking at the theoretical results. I forecast that the tyres will give out upon negotiating the bottom roundabout and that we will all be flung headlong into the park. At least we will make a grand entrance for the swap meet!
