1913 Bédélia BD2: 40 mph on Wooden Wheels?! Yes — this French cyclecar hit terrifying speeds with a wooden frame, rear steering, and a 9hp V-twin that needed prayer to start. Built by two students who crashed their motorcycle and said, “Let’s build a race car,” the BD2 became a legend after winning the 1913 Grand Prix des Cyclecars 🏁 — despite having no transmission and a horn from a marching band.
In today’s episode, we uncover how a belt-driven, tandem-seated death canoe defied engineering logic and historical survival. From exploding belts to heroic honeymooners, this is the bizarre story of France’s most lovable mistake. 💥
