We had many a bottle rocket wars. When I was little I had a cap musket that would "supposedly" fire a cork ball with the energy from a cap. That didn't work well but that musket was great for aiming/shooting bottle rockets. Light the bottle rocket and drop it in like a mortar and point and "shoot"

You weren't jumping ramps on bikes unless you were laying down under the ramp as the bike goes over. Measure out 4 people's worth and lay down and you're possibly going to be landed on. You had to keep on eye on the speed of the rider, though--and be ready to scoot really fast.

Anything beyond adding two sets becomes near impossible to ride or steer as a kid because you have to alternate them in curve (one set going up, one set down). But if you go to a swing set and take the cross bars off, saw off one end to insert on the end of your forks, you can use the hole on the other end for the bike's axle and chop the heck out of it. It's gets pretty sloppy sometimes.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
