Well, it is a new year, so the question needs to be asked.... Who is building anything weird and wonderfull on wheels for this year ? Last year saw these..... Thanks to Bruce for digging this one out, just posted from the bottom. I could not find it in a hurry earlier on. My inspiration last year, thanks Seth. I have one of these wheels , and know where to find another. I may be the owner of one of these by next week. So maybe a bit of this added in, And some of this.... Along with a couple of Go Kart wheels, and a seat?? Anyone got any ideas, or bits to build a toy with ?? Post up what you think.

Hmm, yeah the idea of building something to move around the camp site did cross my mind... It will have to be something pretty small if its going to fit in my GS's boot though!

i had thought about adding an engine to my skooter....
I will try and bring something new or at least modify my current skooter.
Can do a propper race event if we get enough people interested!
One powered catagory and an unpowered one too..

haha never noticed that sign ;D funnily enough, i was thinking about doing this thread earlier today, memories of Dave's (cobblers) bike-scootay which was completely terrifying. I am thoroughly looking forward and genuinly getting excited about the 2010 gathering already, not long left

maybe we need to bolt a universal type joint on the front and back of them all so they'll join up in a big long snake?

My fave wacky racer from last year: Gonna have to set a challenge to the A52 collective to come up with something to roll around with at the gathering. So far we've managed to start, stall and abandon my rat scooter:
