John mimes a ride on a silly machine. Jan makes sounds with hooters and bells of a bicycle, motor bike, train and old car, and invites children to guess which picture the sound belongs to. Through the windows a motor bike is racing. Jan using an old chair, ice-cream container helmet, gumboots and washing up gloves mimes a motor bike race. John dresses up in real motor bike clothing and goes for a ride around the studio on a motor bike.
