Why replace the Bicycle?
Do you ever watch those science and tech programmes on you Televisions, ipads, computers and Sat-TV, that show some silly alternatives to the Bicyle?
I have come to the conclusion, that many of these new high-tech inventions could cause one more serious harm to our bodies than improve our health. Many of these alternatives have come to the fore, to encourage us to try and excercise. But then why don't you just get a bike, or a dog and go for a walk!
If we want to be serious then to start with a saddle is perhaps the best idea, from there we can develop a lighter machine. The fold up is perhaps the greatest invention for the bike, then comes those ultra-light racing bikes. But still it retains its basic shape, my challenge to you out there 'great inventors is to improve what you have, while retaining the flexability of what you have.
It will only be time, that will show us what we can do with two wheels, to make it 3-4 or more, but remain a human powered vehicle?
