Totally wacko later period Sid Davis film here. Presents a lot of things here about protecting your bike, but there's plenty of other things to keep you entertained. Like the lead song, which is amazing, the lead antagonist, Creepo, who certainly plays the part well.. He would have been perfect for all the "Beware" films! and the fun special effects. Totally enjoyable, and highly reccomended!

Fun, early '70s vibe in this short, like something that would be part of a Saturday morning live action kids show, perhaps on PBS/NET. Sid Davis' people had the style down pat, though it probably seems hokey today. Having a kid narrate was a good choice. Excellent direction and editing. The advice in the short is still good today.
