View Full Version : Very important
As above, what did you used to call it when you would give a mate a ride on the back of your BMX? Usually they would stand on the pegs. Or nick the seat and you stood. I've always known it as a backer/possibly heard backy before.
Anyone got any other terms for it? The reason I ask is I'm sure a mate who lives out in the sticks called it a 'froggy' or something similar. Needless to say I burst out laughing!
Please enlighten me. :D
