I'm really curious as to what speeds this thing could get up to... any mech-engineers in the house that could tell us if the power of eight legs could get freeway speeds or what? :wank:

Seriously though, I'm all for going green, and the simple bicycle is the single most economical (in terms of power distribution AND money) vehicle... long live pedal-power.
That said, I haven't touched a bike since I moved out of my parents place, years ago (apart from the 6months in my P's where I didn't have a licence... yeah, I've done my time...).
