    I especially liked the bit (in the video) where "you can take it on a
    bus"...:-)

    !!!

    If someone gave me one I'd probably throw it off a precipice too, is
    that what they meant?

    How about a series of kicker jumps, going the reverse direction, into the caldera?

    Or another scenario, although I don't think the "linkage" or local beer supplies, could withstand a similar reenactment.

    I also 'like' their couch bike:
    bikeforest.comindex.php
    and the hulabike:
    bikeforest.comhulabike.php

    These people are full of 'great' ideas.
    Or maybe they're full of something else?

    They're jokes which fits their mission statement of FUN.
    I followed one of their more serious links to
    http://www.python-lowracer.de/projects.html
    some limitations but an interesting design.

    I knew I should have put a patent on that idea......I suggested a treadmill
    operated bike a few years ago as a tounge-in-cheek dig at the guys/girls at
    the gym at work who walk on the treadmill in front of the TV for an hour or
    so when it is a beautiful morning outside and work is located across St
    Kilda Rd from "The Tan" which is a great track just under 4km around that
    circumnavigates a huge expanse of gardens here in Melbourne. "Imagine,
    being able to combine the benefits of the treadmill and fresh air without
    actually having to go for a walk/run".......not sure if they caught the
    sarcasm or not??

    I wonder if I could buy one and then convert it to a fixie??? Would make
    downhills pretty interesting!!!
