OH CANADA!



Canadians are known for their inventive nature. Alexander Graham Bell anyone? So its no surprise that we're at the forefront of innovative bicycle technology. Feeling like a bike ride? But trying to train for next year's marathon? No problem! Canadian company Bicycle Forest has designed this little beauty - the Treadmill Bicycle. Check out their website for details as well as some sweet video of some dude ramping this baby. Nice.

  1. If that isn't the dumbest thing i've ever seen!! Take a very efficient bike, take away all the efficiency, and make it slower than actually running outside.

  2. But did you check out the sweet ramp action? This baby is made to catch air!

  3. It is better than the plastic bag. Or was that the next featured Canadian innovation? JS

  4. I found the Escalade version. This baby won't catch air, but I bet it'd catch fire - especially going down hill with no brakes.
