quicko: push bikes
Bike bikes, as opposed to motorbikes. Australians favo(u)r "motorbike" over "motorcycle," but "push bike" keeps confusing me. I picture a shopping cart ("trolley" here) or a bike with a basket or some odd combination when all they actually mean is just a literal bicycle.

I have a basket for my bicycle...have to pump up the tyres and ride it again. :-)
Growing up in the country, people used to often yell out the rather unfunny heckle when riding, "It's a push bike, why don't you get off and push it".
