The Bike That Makes You Go ‘Hmmm’..
Posted by Jason A. Hendricks on October 10, 2008 |
Here is an odd looking contraption that has been invented by a resilient Los Angelas inventor. I am not sure of the purpose of the ride (cycling in tight spaces has been mentioned) but it is definitely interesting. I am guessing that this contraption gets it’s foundation from the combination of cycling and the pure love of Merry-Go-Rounds. Who would have put that combination together? Robert Weschler, of course!
Weschler used the parts of 30 different bicycles to make his dreamland fantasy-go-round for cyclists a reality. Not only can you sit and spin, but now you can do so at 15 mph.
Remember when it use to suck when the one person pushing the merry-go-round would run out of steam? Now you can get those speeds that you craved as a child. You don’t even have to worry about slipping and taking a steel pole to the groin, anymore. What could be better than that?
I could put one of these contraptions in the garage, invite all the family children over, and not have to hear from them for hours-=-this sounds like a worthy cause to me. Sign me up!
