Thanks for posting this! I notice one negative comment, - "Why is this posted on the front page here?"

My answer, it INSPIRES the FREEDOM to create within the human being. And. let us get the government out of the way, and lets then see a lot of people coming up with creative ideas and products like this one!

This is what I love about the internet!

Submitted by TheLorax on Thu, 07/26/2012 - 13:31.

New ideas and different ways of looking at the world can easily be distributed to a large audience. We are the ones we've been waiting for because the answers are out there - it's just that we've been held back so long by barriers in communication.

Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for posting that, rino. Makes me think more outside of the box. (no pun intended)

Of course you are right.

Without roads ...

Why would you need a bike?

Society inspired this and this man is simply exploiting the need.

For him to possibly make a profit from the time he spent diddling in his workshop should be criminal.

Carry on.

If he could mass produce this for about $100 ....

He is going to make millions.

Even if you have to get a new one every year ...

The greenies would pay double that per year.
