This short educational film from 1972 titled “Just Like a Car” features clips of youth-aged cyclists riding around their suburban town woven with historical b-roll footage to detail the evolution of bicycles and the importance of adhering to traffic and safety regulations while riding them. The film was made by Film Loops, Inc. and features a catchy jingle written and produced by Robert (Bob) Brush. Brush is an American writer-producer and composer, best known for his work as executive producer, writer and showrunner of ABC's "The Wonder Years". Some of the kids bikes shown include classic Schwinn's with banana seats and spring forks -- like classic Orange Krates.
