I stumbled on this and want to pass it on. All kind of bicycle patents and weird ideas. The one I got a chuckle out of was the device to slow you down so you could cycle at the same pace as your mate! Put one of those on your bike if you dare. Sounds like thin ice to me. I was suprised that what is new is most likely not very.

Agreed to the way cool on the bamboo bike. I was priveledged to get to go into the bamboo forest in Hawaii couple years ago on vacation. When they say that it is a grass, that is just a technicallity. I was in awe, it was relly cool,,,guess it could make you sense a little what the ants do when they walk thru the grass, cause I felt small in that world of tall stuff... ... ...peace

I was pleased to find some articles on local history - The Wright Brothers and Gaansari bikes.
