Gotta wonder what kind of spoke looks like a magic pony tail when it breaks...

Looks more like the tail on My Little Pony....

To my huge relief, my daughter likes back flips, Skull trail at Hartland and cross bows; ponies with carbon fibre spoke tails not so much...

Pete's probably thinking of Magic Pony, which I'm now afraid to google...

Dude, you have WAY too much time on your hands!

Yeah, Bill

You almost have about a quarter of the posts of Pedro and the Captain Retro, you'd better slow down!

Still, pretty cool cartoons. Must have taken a few days to figure that out.
