So I was going through the site, (No, NOT obsessively) and I found rimiha's Human Model.

SO, BIG SHOUTOUT TO RIMIHA.

In the early 1980's my father lived in a small town that every summer would have a harvest festival, celebrating the town's local crop. Which was olives.
During that time my father owned a muffler shop. So this is a recreation of one of his entries.
Think Red Bull Flugtag, but a bed with wheels on a flat street. Four person team, three pushers, one rider (usually the smallest person.)

Pitch up for pushing forward.
Steer with roll.
Brake gyro with brake.

If you can tell me the name of the town that I am talking about, I will upvote ten of your posts. First correct answer wins.
