Goodness. The older I get the more appealing these little treasures become.I saw a wicker bodied , v twin powered twin seater a few years ago in Melbourne Australia. It had a rope pull start in the cabin, a solid rear axle with a single Morris Minor brake hub on the inboard part of the axle . The seats were two plastic stackable kitchen chairs without the steel legs. No gauges, or switches or even any lights. Wish I could see it again today.
sorry to be so offtopic but does any of you know a way to log back into an instagram account?? I stupidly lost my login password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me!
Cyclecars are often overlooked...always found them interesting...were an answer to the engine displacement tax... I think Morgan cyclecars are still being made, but rather expensive.
Thanks Robin. Just tried to get a flavour of the atmosphere. To be honest, thanks to all those there all I had to do was point the camera. Couldn't miss really! (And I seriously applaud everybody's efforts in putting it on.)
Some of these could reach 200, (metres per minute) . In a world of ridiculous power outputs and top speeds ,it is a rare treat to see these old gems being maintained. Thanks to everyone involved.
A wonderful film of a splendid event. It reminds me of a wag at Armstrong Siddeley who, referring to Stoneleighs, said of J.D.Siddeley, "the man who made walking a pleasure."
All the movies I've seen that are either made in the UK or are 'located' in the UK, you'd think you'd see a few more cycle cars in them. Honestly, I wish there were more modern versions of these but here in the States I'm terrified of driving around in an up armored humvee... the other day I had a Hellcat Demon blow by me so fast I thought I had been hit, my car was shoved by air 3 feet to the right... which was scary since there is no shoulder on that road.
Super cool video!! I have been assembling a machine shop to support my UA-cam channel that I will be starting with the build of a 1928 Morgan RIP GN special 3 wheeler with 4 wheels. I am using an experimental aircraft opposed twin supercharged engine. This will be mated to an MG 4 speed manual gearbox with a 2 piece hand cast aluminum adapter. This will be connected to an MG differential with beautiful wire wheels. The frame I stood over steel and will have aircraft cloth stretched over and sprayed with plasticizer. This will have a boat tail look and is essentially a 20's airplane without a propeller or wings. There is only one other in existence and Charlie Martin races it in the UK. The next project lined up is the building of a Brooklands style cycle car similar to the Pembleton. This will have a BMW R-100 engine in the front and four wheels with gorgeous leather interior and even space for luggage. I look forward to seeing everyone over at the channel when it gets warm out enough to be in the barn in Pennsylvania .....
Mike, sorry, but this was a 'private' event and I'm not permitted to say. Due to its popularity it may become public in the future as it is in France. (Alternative venue every other year.)
Malcolm, sorry, but this was a 'private' event and I'm not permitted to say. Due to its popularity it may become public in the future as it is in France. (Alternative venue every other year.)
What lovely...well everything, People and machines (and venue is gorgeous). Please, please do not make this event public, the mob will destroy, as "they" do everything pure, any and all good. but do post any and all videos for us 'outsiders'. Just knowing this exist made me very warm inside. I envy each and everyone whom is a part of this...
Sadly the green peoples party of Germany and the EU environment chamber have banned all combustion cars after 2030, from 2025 on there will be only very limited fuel supply, only one gas station per city in the EU. In Scandinavia all combustion cars and fossile fuels are banned from 2025 on too. At the moment they even discuss to forbid trade with used combustion cars including classics!
Love the aerodynamic arrow pointed back ends on some of these 40 mph vehicles. It's like symbolic irony humor!
What a bunch of stupid, silly old cars damn I wish I was there. My kind of stupidity and silliness. Great video!
This is pure deceleration in our nervous times,very refreshing!

Brilliant film in the real spirit of the Festival.
Thank you Rhys, glad you enjoyed it.
👍
That's gotta be the most fun you can have on 3 or 4 wheels! 😆👍👍
Too true!
This was thoroughly enjoyable. If only cars had as much characture these days.
And as affordable

Cyclecars are often overlooked...always found them interesting...were an answer to the engine displacement tax... I think Morgan cyclecars are still being made, but rather expensive.
3 wheelers were taxed as motorcycles, and motorcycles were taxed according to cylinder bore size. The reason for such long stroke engines.
It's definitely not the Pebble Beach Concours, but it looks way more fun. Love the cars, glad they were saved.
Pebble Beach is for the hoity toity.
I much prefer the pursuits of the hoi polloi!
@@dewardroy6531Yep, get your fun a la carte
Looks like a great crowd and day out.
Bloody marvellous. A splendid potpourri of Cyclecar paradise .
Thanks Robin. Just tried to get a flavour of the atmosphere. To be honest, thanks to all those there all I had to do was point the camera. Couldn't miss really! (And I seriously applaud everybody's efforts in putting it on.)
👍
I wanna build one like this today and have fun driving country side
Good luck! (The cars featured all pre-date 1920!)
OMG! The lawnmower race had me in stiches🤣🤣🤣🤣
😄👍 me too!
Blessed be the Name of God forever
This is awesome content. The drivable bathtub totally fits my love of absurd & quirky.
💙 from France.
That looked a fun event, and I had no idea there was such a variety of cars, amazing, thanks for sharing!
Bom
Far more interesting than I expected. Thank you for posting
Lovely to watch , at the age of 53 , time to build one this summer , then Cream tea Sundays.
Wonderful! Thoroughly enjoyable! And a superb match all around of style and joy.
You can hold a conversation with pedestrians as you’re going along!!
Loved to watch it. Thanx.
If Life was just a celebration of the good things that were....
I think this world would be a much happier and friendlier place to live..!
What a grand day out, thanks so much for sharing. ❤
Some of these could reach 200, (metres per minute) . In a world of ridiculous power outputs and top speeds ,it is a rare treat to see these old gems being maintained.
Thanks to everyone involved.
We humans are at our best when we share our hobbies.
What a beutiful event - nice People and nice "Cars".

Such variety,thank you.
Wunderschön! :))
Danke vielmals!
I live in the U.S. and loved this video. Looks like Tons of good times.
It was. And rumour has it, there might be another one in the UK next year! My own 'cyclecar' is a '36 so far too young to take part!
@@pickprod I hope you get to take part in that. Good luck
A good happy video. I enjoyed it.
👍

Great fun!
Wonderfull machine !!
Lovely car!
Grandiose.... 👍👏✌️

Lawn mower races of Payett ID. Are real kick ass.
Genial and....crazy ! But very funny ! With a drop of typical british sense of humour ! 😄😄👍
Nice editing. Well done!

Brilliant
Nice ❤️
Whacky racers! I wonder if they are insured or not ;)
The Festival of Slowth . I'm too lazy to go. Maybe I can hang around with you guys later.

Is the replacement starter six or twelve volts please?
This was when cars was cars and they did not have much power or speed . But it was better than walking .
Therefore that event can also be named festival of slow.✌️
i love that AC Sociable, it looks like a low poly frog
Great, aren't they? One sold for a bargain price recently: www.brightwells.com/lot-details/529774
Is that an American fotoplayer for the background music on the Lawnmower race? It sounds like Joe Rinados.
I was expecting James May.
The bathtub bicycle
where was this? i wanted to see more of the bathtub and bikes thing . is there more footage?
Amazing how many ways you can configure a baby carriage and a chainsaw. :-)*
Cycle cars should make a comeback with the power denity of +52v ebikes and scooters today.
2:42 Meet the Bathmobile.
still had to have money to have one
cute innovatived car. even 3 wheels.hope younger generation knew. that waaaay back era. smart little car already tinkering n produce to public.

@@pickprod wow. Thanks for the info. That is an amazing vehicle
Is this on this year? If so, where?
Mike, sorry, but this was a 'private' event and I'm not permitted to say. Due to its popularity it may become public in the future as it is in France. (Alternative venue every other year.)
👏👏👏🇦🇷
It's obviously a deluxe its got a door.! The super deluxe have brakes!
THESE ARE THE UNIQS MODEL IN THE WORLD..
Do brasil um abraço
Obrigada. R.
Why are there so many logs strewn about in the road? I guess they are to mark the course but look like navigation hazards to me.
Are they all road legal?
Guarantee you they were a whole lot better than walking or saddling a horse
The lawn mower race: crank harder and faster!
Thank you.what is your country sir.I am from Sri Lanka
United Kingdom of Great Britain
Where was this run ? Please
Malcolm, sorry, but this was a 'private' event and I'm not permitted to say. Due to its popularity it may become public in the future as it is in France. (Alternative venue every other year.)

A model T would be a giant in comparison to any of these.
The text in top left is far to hard to read for those on small screen!
Decent wood festival of okay speed

Early Go Karts 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣😍😍Lawnmower race
Vive La France!
Mais oui!
Вот это техника
The Badwood Revival
What? No steamers?
I had a 1929 BSA 500cc Sloper motorbike in my youth, and that was positively space age compared to most of these motors.

Hey Moe.
10:10 looks pretty fast
Why " slowth" ? All the vehicles are fast enough.
Might be as a way to balance out the "Festival of Speed" :-)
Wow a race my 91 2.3 ranger could actually win😂
