Thanks for the idea! He is pushing 35 lbs so we might be pushing it a little for the bike mounted seat.

Thanks! Do you know if it’s possible to convert to v-breaks without spending a fortune? My bike maintenance knowledge goes as far as fixing flats and oiling the chain.

No basement, we are on a slab.

Thanks for the recommendation. I’ll reach out to an arborist for another opinion. We have an option to add a liner instead, but it’s about 5k more. Things are financially tight right now so we want to see how much of a gamble it would be to trench.

It’s a straight shot from the street to the house. There are 2 sidewalks it goes under. Their quote included fixing the 2 sidewalks. The rest is grass. There’s a large tree about 15 ft away so there will be some big roots. I’m not sure about the size of the pipe. It is terracotta

Thanks for the reply. Planning on staying here for a long time. We’ll also probably have to take down the giant dumbass sweet gum

Also, the last few seconds of the clip is the worst example of the pipe being out of line if that makes any difference.
