Well 1st up you need a horse, and a condom and hope fully the horse can direct you to the right forum as this is the general and you could be talking about anything!

To start of, you just want first gear,
When you get cruising......you can go for the top gear

Well - I just didn't read it properly and assumed it was someone wanting to know how to surf... could be completely wrong.

No mate you should knock up your own. You start with a street post, three wheelbarrow wheels and a fertiliser bag and in no time at all you will be lying down going feet first along the beach at 80 klm/h with your bum 2 inches off the ground.

Check it out here:-


and go over to the land yachting forum.
