It's got brakes- haven't you ever seen the Flintstones? You have to ride shoe-less. And you can't have anything in your photo more technologically advanced than a $20 helmet.

k umm their situation there is MUCH FAR WORSE than ours here, so if i had the opportunity to even sit on that and go for a *ride*, rope around my body or not, id take it if i was there
i think its great that they find joy in the simplest things because we pussy out huge when we bitch about scratch on our stantions or a broken peg compared to them for exmple...
my opinion..
