septuplet tricycle
i'm pretty sure its single speed, so i'm posting about it here.
its some ridiculous contraption i've seen a few times. 7 people sit around in a circle frame, all with a set of pedals, and i dont really know what its for, besides people with too much money (costs 19 grand) and 6 friends
anyway, whenever i see it they're riding down a sidewalk in chicago, is that legal? should they be in the street? its probably atleast the width of a car.
i have so many questions, but its 3:30 am, so this is the best i can do
