Hi They do have a lot of the unusual there (at Burning man). One, albeit motorized vehicle, that caught my eye some time back was the riot wheel. http://www.theriotwheel.com/BurningMan.html http://www.theriotwheel.com/Movies.html I found it while searching on Monowheels (as opposed to unicycles) http://www.dself.dsl.pipex.com/MUSEUM/TRANSPORT/motorwhl/motorwhl.htm The only quasi current HPV versions I ever found were these http://www.bicyclecommuter.com/Monocycle.htm if anybody has more info on these (or similar) I would be very interested. At $350 they sound like a great deal. The HPV version seems to make far more sense than the ubiquitous motorized versions with their inherent need to avoid rapid acceleration and deceleration (otherwise leading to "gerbiling" http://www.jackiechabanais.com/images/tracto5a.jpg). Cheers Daryl - I can't help but admire people who leave the path trodden by the masses. :-) -----Original Message----- From: python-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:python-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Ray Schumacher Sent: Monday, September 19, 2005 11:17 PM To: python@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [python] weird bikes If you haven't seen the bikes at Burning Man, here's some links: http://marc.merlins.org/perso/bm/2005/Pix/122_Bikes.jpg http://marc.merlins.org/perso/bm/2005/Pix/120_Bikes.jpg http://marc.merlins.org/perso/bm/2005/Pix/135_Bikes.jpg all at http://marc.merlins.org/perso/bm/2005/ look about 40% and 66% down and from previous years http://marc.merlins.org/perso/bm/2004/Pix/105_Bikes.jpg maybe next year - pythons!
