Pedal cars

[Pixie]

But I wasn’t jealous, even at 8 I knew it looked contrived & mine had the battle worn patina of an authentic ex army. . .erm. . . pedal car.

The ones that were involved in the famous counter attack at Khe Sanh during the Tet Offensive are very sought after.

You had a pedal car??? You rich SOB!

Dad made me a "go-cart" when one of the old (big) lawnmowers died.
Using those wheels, a swappa crate with one side cut off as a seat and some 4x1 for frame and steering.

Was cool until it just about cut my right arm off.

The trick was to take the blade off the motor when you made a go kart from a mower.

....didn't your dad like you much?

I would agree ... not enough run-up ...

at least 25 metres of 30 degree hill (or more of both :yes) ... with feet out to the side ... no worries ...
