Bicycle for 6?

On the weekend i saw this creation being ridden (or driven?) around. It operates like two bikes joined together, with each half being a 3-person version of a tandem bike. The front person has a steering wheel instead of handlebars.


Shortly after this photo was taken i saw it carry 9 people (though only 6 could pedal). I'm not sure that i'm really advocating this as a major form of transport - can't really think of that many applications for it. But the creativity certainly caught the eye - and the imagination.

Was on facebook this morning, and spotted these two 'status updates' from a facebook friend.

Another Electric Bike

Since my friend entered the world of electric bikes, i've been seeing a few of them around. It's hard to get a good look because they zip by (compared to me chugging along) but i think the one i saw today was the City Cruiser.


I reckon they look fairly stylish, and you hardly even notice the battery tucked away under the seat.
