My grate frend Mr Woolrich made something similar out of half a Bickerton many years ago.
That sounds amazing - are there any photos?
I can probably rustle up a really crap B&W one tonight (local time, it's 06:45 here ATM) but if I've got anything better it'll be:
- an old-skool print, and
- at home
where I won't be for about three of your Earth weeks.
My grate frend Mr Woolrich made something similar out of half a Bickerton many years ago.
Intentionally?
Why, yes! Following the success of Mr Woolrich's Velocino (as such machines are sometime known) my grate frend the late Hairy McSteve also built one with a monocoque wooden frame while the offering of monocoque maven Mike Burrows was built from a BMX frame and had a fixed gear. I bike-sat Mr Woolrich's example for a while when he was moving house or something and found it very handy for nipping to the shops and so forth, though you did get a certain number of comments from the Cheerful Cockney Urchins when riding it up the Leytonstone High Road.
