It's all good D..luv the stories. Brings back memories. .OK! I know y'all probably don't want to hear all of my old time remarks but I can't help it when I see things like this! Cards in the spokes were the coolest but even cooler was to blow up balloons & tie each end to the frame & have them rub up against the spokes...sounded like a hot rod motorcycle! You could even fine tune these for sound, by having more or less air & you could adjust the pressure against the spokes to make them last longer! When one would blow out Bam! Sounded like you blew the engine...some of the neighbors didn't like this much!!! Oh and it helped to have a big bag of balloons on hand too!!!![]()

We had clothspins/cards on frame and wedged playing cards into spokes..tdddrrrrrrrr
I would take an empty bleach bottle, cut out a piece, and use that like green describes. Lasts much longer than cardboard.![]()
Yea, I remember this too, thanks and definitely did the cards with close pins but if you never saw or heard the balloons your missing something...maybe I'll try this on my mtn bike. haha...people will think I'm nuts & they may be right!
Wow, we didn't have tie wraps though!
One for Aggie
