Then later on the beach, as Elizabeth watches, just as the wheel rolls and falls over in the close-up, the wheel is actually rolling in the opposite direction - just note its blades.

In the next shot, Grawp, still standing in the same place, dings the bell on the same handlebar; it changed hands between shots.
