Aerorider
Aerorider primarily meant for commuting. Aerodynamic bodywork protects from wind and rain. Easy to maintain speed without perspiring. Time efficient, easy and comfortable way to improve your fitness.
Me want.

  • Squishy death when a car veers into your lane. I'm just sayin'.
  • I'll stick with a Vespa. It's the European dream... < /izzard>
  • Reminds me of this.
  • Reminds me of this. They promoted it similarly, too. God I am old.
  • I. Want. One. The production moulds are being manufactured at this moment. Production and sales start in September 2003 ! Um, updates, please?
  • Reminded me of this. Porsche, Volvo, Bentley, GM...
  • Big shout to fellow Vespa-rider lilnemo ... on a balmy night like tonight it's gonna be a real pleasure going home ... But I'd consider one of these
  • I live in a fairly 'safe' city, but even so my first thought was - how do you keep the thing from being stolen? It looks light enough to easily carry off.
  • No cages for me! I'd take my trusty bicycle any day of the week. The problems I see: - reduced visibilty (both your own and to those around you) - cockpit would be way too hot (aerodynamics may be better, but you still have to go up hills) - parking (it'd be tough to stick it in a bike rack and would take up a lot of room)
  • A faired tadpole trike. You'ld be so boned in a heavy crosswind.
  • FtF is right; full-fairing bikes are freakin' greenhouses on wheels. You (well, I, anyway) need the wind to keep cool. But they do go very fast- you don't really appreciate how much drag your body produces until you ride something like this.
  • reminds me of, but isn't as cool as, this.

  • as featured in the film until the end of the world.
