(Turn UP SPEAKERS)
(music= LIGHTNING-BOLT)



Brave Travelers
This image was taken after the 2 person bike test. The Tire was originally scrapped together from a bicycle graveyard. The mass of 2 humans + a pile of batteries pushed said tire out of spec and it failed miserably. Fortunately, it held up throughout the test run, like a champ.
Emily K.= the first, second passenger on the cycle. She survived the excursion unscathed, a brave soul indeed.
next up:
hunting down a solid rear tire.

notes:
why does this page look like it was designed in the 90's:  
Because it works, im not a web artist. There's no twitter links, there's no 'Digg this' garbage, the internet survived before that.
Also if your stuck in an office on a mandated IE6 browser, everything here is readable. Your welcome.
Why is it all on one page
Do you like multi-page add filled links? i dont either
Is this bike thing legal?
Check your country laws, If your in the US, Follow this (link below), basically under 750W, and sub 20mph = legal. Again, check your local laws
