I would actually really like the third one, if I thought it was possible to ride it without some sort of artificial neck restraint.

you could turn on it, just not sharply. The problem would be the headset interfering with your arms if your grip is right next to the stem(s).

Am I the only one who thinks the first 2, while wierdly cool, are, nevertheless, damn fugly?

I would be worried about the stem(s) hitting the downtube.

i'd be more worried about being on the ends of those pursuit bars and the bars slipping. you'd endo and get run over by your own bike.
