Bit of a hero of mine ! Does anyone remember the red wind up unit that fired a wheeling toy evil and bike across the living room floor ? Best toy of my childhood ! Think that was part of what got me into the stupid sport of motox . Too old now to recover from recreating the stunts . My bike still in the garage though. RIP to the nutter !

Looks like its socks and the hi karatee set for you. (and me). Keep dreaming about things you wanted when you were 12 and anything engine powered ! They only tut because they are jealous and have mature genes .

They probably would have.
I blame William wallace, he started it all off. All that crossing the border, raping and pilaging.
