I used to mow the yard of a guy who, among other things, made racing wheelchairs for a living.

It makes you wonder, with that kind of income, how he could afford to have a kid come mow his yard. Well, I worked cheap, and he let me take his tadpole trike out for rides.

I took it to school one day. My Mech Drawing teacher took it for a spin. Then he broke his foot with it. Don't put your feet down! The brakes work!

Ah, good times.
