Vicious Circles
•There is no machine whk'h lends itself better towards riding in circles than a tricycle, and this property is exploited to the full by all who u-c this mode of travel. The time when it is most apparent is when a small child on a tricyclc is waiting outside a shop for its guardian to complete a purchase. No sooner lias, the parent vanished through the doorway than the handle-bars arc twisted to full lock and the youngster pedals furiously round in circles. It is surprising how agile pedestrians suddenly become when one of these vicious circles is ap-, preached as although ihe machine may have passed by on one round the next lap may be very "upsetting'" to the unwary alult.
