I've done the ride like this because this is the sort of ride I would like to do  People who organize "killer" rides probably enjoy that kind of shock treatment

As the original organiser of the Fairies Flat Five what does that say about me!  On the other hand the fastest of my several Battle and Backs was on the trike.

this is briliant!
but I won't be going near said ride when it does run.
