This bike resembles a giant wheelchair.  However, don’t even attempt to ride one if you have some physical disabilities.  In fact don’t ride it at all even if you are fully able, as you would likely end up disabled if you make the wrong turn…Notice what’s on his neck?

A Silly Bike

The brilliant idea with this trike here is that there are no pedals to tire your legs.  The trike is propelled by running and a sore crotch.
