    Seems like it would be dangerous to race one of those inside a cafe.

    Guess not, since I don't know what that is. I mean, I know what micro means, and I know what machines are, but...two countries separated by a common language.

    Unless you just mean playing with miniature cars/bikes--certainly I driven a few of those through miniature buildings (although not in the past 50 years or so).

    Ha. I've never been much of a video game fan (generational thing, I think) but that looks like it would have been fun...

    I added a link as the first one was in 91 then they did the second one in 94 and a few more and I do believe that they have just released a version in the last few years as a come back

    Such silliness. Why would you race a cafe? You’d always win—cafes are cemented in place.

    *If* I ever decided to get a bike... I'm attracted to these classic styles.
