I've actually seen one of those in use on the streets of Manhattan. The riders (if that's the right word) seemed to be having a good time. In fact, they seemed to be pretty hammered. Anyway, it's funny. It's as wide as a car, but a lot slower, so you can imagine how popular it is with auto drivers. And I can't figure out how the drivetrain works.

What I wanna do is get like 7 of us members in NY and get on one of those. Assuming we can each sprint at 800 watts or so, that's 5600 watts of power going into that steel multi-rider death trap.
