Re: Anoraky spotted thread. Russell wrote: Mythbusters attempting the 'stuck in the desert bullshit 2cv motorcycle tale' Did it work? Always thought it would be easier to get the car to drag itself out of the desert than turn it into a bike - as I think I recall he was only about 2 days walk from help & it took 4 days to get the bike going, allegedly.

Re: Anoraky spotted thread. I can't remember the whole story but it stinks of bullshit all the way through, I dare say the Mythbusters episode will be interesting and I wouldn't be surprised if it worked as a motorcycle but yes, there's no way what the bloke says he did was easier than just getting the car mobile again. I haven't seen the episode yet but it only just aired in the yew ess ayy so I dunno when it'll be on here.
