Summary[]
Granny Slippers sits on Max Speed's stunt bike when her curiosity gets the better of her. Accidentally starting it, she hurtles out of control through the Big Town Park towards a towering stunt ramp. Brum saves the day by diverting the runaway bike from a death-defying leap into a pile of soft straw bales.
