Meet the Bike-Yak. It's a combination of a Kayak and a Bike, and it's made entirely from parts saved from a landfill. If global warming causes a 10 foot increase in sea level, serious flooding would occur in low lying areas.
The Bike-Yak could be one possible mode of transportation for areas that may become flooded due to global warming.
The SQRL (called "Squirrel") Skatebike is basically like a unicycle, except it has two wheels added to the front. The Skatebike has a grab bar in the front to help with balance and steering. To steer the Skatebike, just lean to either side.
The bicycle has been around for a long time, without an amazing amount of change made to the design. The StreetSurfer takes the old design of the bicycle and adds something completely new to the mix. Instead of having only two wheels, the StreetSurfer has five, with the usual one wheel in the back, but four in the front.
The four wheels in the front of the StreetSurfer operate independently from eachother and provide enhanced stability, traction, and the bike's excellent suspension system gives a smooth ride.
Instead of turning the handlebars to steer the bike, the StreetSurfer is steered by leaning to either side.
Many people, instead of pitching something they don't need anymore, have begun to use FreeCycle to give it away to someone else. FreeCycle.org is a great site where people can give away something they don't need/want to someone who wants it. Join your local area's network and give away something you don't or get some great stuff for free!
Lots of people have received free bikes out of this site from people in their area. Who knows what else you could get for free?
Here's a big multi-person bike a whole group of people can enjoy. The Conference bike is a tricycle that seats and can be pedaled by 7 people. One person steers while the rest can pedal and enjoy the ride.
The Conference bike is designed to promote conversation amongst the riders, and to be just plain fun to ride.
