Once upon a time I rather foolishly bought an FWD/RWS tricycle from a
certain Mr. M. Burrows. It spent a considerable part of the summer of
1989 trying to kill me, as at speeds of more than 15 mph it was wont to
lift each rear wheel in turn until it fell over and the hapless rider
slid down the road wearing the thing for a hat. I still have the scars
from where a considerable quantity of Mr. Larrington came off at the
bottom of the hill at Eastway. My friend Mr. J. Woolrich maintained
that he knew precisely what was wrong with its geometry, and took it off
my hands for about a hundred of the BRITONS' pounds.
For the past sixteen years it has been lurking untouched in the vast
network of Sheds which conspire to prop up his bathroom.
