Geocache Description:



Cricket Built at Walker and Woodbridge Detroit 1914

The Cricket cyclecar of Detroit was the most unusual of any built. This consisted practically of two motorcycle frames set side-by-side, with flexible connecting frame which supported a two-seating body between them. This body was roomy and seated the passenger’s side-by-side. The motor was of the motorcycle type and fitted on the right-hand running board, from which a chain carried the power to a gearbox just back of the motor. From this gearbox a single belt took the drive to a single rear wheel, so that all the power was from this side. This car was sold in small quantities and was used for sometime in the delivery work when fitted with a package body.
