Contraption Rapture












Today's theme are unlikely and unwieldy feats of mechanical engineering, more fondly known as 'contraptions'. On the far right is a preposterous vehicle I saw on 42nd Street last year, and about which I've finally found information! It's the ConferenceBike, a huge tricycle pedaled by seven riders sitting in a circle! One person steers, and the ad everyone is free to pedal or not, though I imagine at least one person must actually pedal for it to move. Their slogan: It's not just a bike - it's a party on wheels!
