My hubby did the same thing! Son and I took him out for a ride and about 3 miles in son says, "Hey, mom, take a look at dad's fork." Backwards!
We didn't make fun of him. Mostly because he can crush us with one foot.

Over at one of the other forums someone posted a photo of a bike for sale on some big box store's web page (wasn't wally world, but something similar in another country) - that was assembled all wrong! backwards fork - handlbars just about pointed at the ground. It was a mess! Didn't give too much confidence in the store or bike...
