Bogeys!!! I forgot about them. Had a few of those over the yrs. scaffold plank, 4 wheels (sometimes all the same size,) cross frame with rope or string to steer, no brakes.
About 10 of us all made bikes one summer, from old frames, and bits of other old bikes we could get our hands on. Planned a big day out to Barry Island to test them. Got halfway down Plymouthwood Rd hill, when I hear my mate Reggie Cann, shouting out from behind me “ get out of the fuc*ing way!! I look, and his handle bars have fallen off and he’s trying to steer with the forks!!
