Robots on bikes!
Yahoo has a story on a robot convention in Japan, one of the pictures they feature, is a robot on a bike.
I have no idea what it could be used for, but it looked neat!

I think it's a nice demonstration of dynamic balancing, and it may provide additional insights into bicycle balancing.
