A McLaren F1, one of the best (or maybe only) creation of the british. Also tuned up with only one central sit, and with all unecessary weight off...

That oval wheels are not the normal choice for movement so you have a fetish for unusual curves. Standing while moving in a fashion while looking down... well like a prayer you want them to take you there. Also the 3 wheels indicate you are repressing a religous upbringing of the Holy Trinity and are trying to use devices to set yourself free. This desire for devices is only heightened by the lack of suspension which in turn makes your locomotion choice highly vibrative. :book:

WAY off. Actually, I was looking for a regular Velocipede, with pedals at the normal height, two wheels- the one at the front was the big one, the back would be little, and the wheels were supposed to be round. You got the desire for a jarring ride right, though. Also, the guy was supposed to sit up straight.

So... run with that- this is getting interesting. Although I do have a fetish for curves, albeit of a normal nature, and in certain... I think I should stop.

Edit:This is what I was looking for.

I just thought a really old picture was funnier, and fit the mood better.

That is a penny-farthing (think of two coins of different size)
