I had a Manx back in the late '70s. Fun but certainly not practical. I was living in San Diego and took it to the Glamis sand dunes but it was too heavy, then took it to Baja but it was too rough, so just drove it around town but it wasn't comfortable. The neighbor's son stole it once, then after I reported it to the police the son returned it. Funny to see the expression on the faces of the police when I told them it was no longer stolen. Sold it for more than I paid for it, although then they were really cheap anyway. One of countless toys over the years. Many of them I wish I had back, but honestly not that one.
