The Simple, Ingenious, Portable Rubbee Turns Any Old Bike Into An Electric Bicycle In Seconds...

The very clever and seemingly well designed Rubbee is a portable device that can turn any old bike into an ebike in just a minute. Or less.
The Rubbee's polyurethane roller simply engages the rear tyre making a motor only speed of twenty five kph possible.
Created in Kaunas in Lithuania, the stylish Rubbee is very easy to install, just mount it on the seat pedestal, attach the throttle
and you're good to go.
The efficient friction driven Rubbee is a great idea even if it's a bit expensive at around 799 British pounds and 1227 US dollars but it might be worth checking out.
There's more to know here, here and here.
It must be good I guess,

You'll Be Able To Ride This Cute Little Tripod-Velomobile Soon...

The Velomobile is a fun form of transportation.
It's really a human powered recumbent tricycle with full body fairing to increase its aerodynamics and give the rider some protection.
In this velomobile, the rider sits upright to be able to see what's going on around him or her. Handy really.
It's got a full electric lighting system, horn, windscreen wiper and a high-visibility flag.
While it's intended to be pedal driven, it's also got a 500 watt electric motor for power assist.
This cute little machine is going into production sometime soon.

Technical difficulties still persist. 
Displaying more than one photo is a problem.
Using another method I'm able to display one image but other bloggers and myself are still waiting for Picasa/Google to remedy the situation.
But one image is better than none...
