Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

So...this kid didn't test this out before submitting it to the prof, did he? Good idea, he might be on to something. Just needs more time spent on R&D.

To admit my nerdom...
I have always had this dream of cycling around town in a full movie-quality storm trooper outfit. That would be so (un)cool.

Bikes: It's the motor, not the bike, right?

Those blast points are too precise for sand people. This is the work of emperial storm troopers.
