The biggest problem with the pedal bicycle is that the 'engine' ie human is so big & heavy - especially in my case.
If someone can invent one that doesn't need the rider, it would be near 100% efficiency, and the drag could be reduced to near nothing - a simple tube with a sharp point and tiny wheels would do it - almost no drag - triple-A batteries all along inside and a very slim motor inside. Might need some big outriggers with wheels to balance I suppose - then its not a bicycle though."take me to your leader"Comment

The regeneration of the species through sex and childbirth was the best thing before sliced bread.
It is still the best thing.

See you, you ****. I'll cut you first...
