I'm a nerd, there ya go I said it... now that that's out of the way I have just stumbled (thanks to Gizomodo) across the ultimate (IMHO) Nerd Motorycle... that's right you can right now go onto eBay and purchase a Street Legal replica of the LightCycle from the movie Tron!
There are going to be a total of 5 of these machines built by the Parker Brothers who also built a seriously cool replica of the Batpod, each of the 5 will have a different color lighting color scheme and customers can add their own specs to the already nifty machine including choice of a "high powered gasoline or performance Electric powerplant" The wheels are "custom made 22" x12" dual hubless wheels with custom made tires (Hoosier is custom making 5 sets just for us specifically for this project). (Buyers will have the option of additional tires as needed)"
The guys are saying it is built "for everyday street use" which sounds like a lot of fun to me and for a super limited edition masterpiece that you can actually ride $35 grand sounds a bargain! |

| Ride to Work!
|
| 
DO NOT FORGET that this coming Monday (June 21st) is Ride to work day, that means get on your dual wheeled velocipede... whichever form that may take... be it a brand new Hog or a 1978 Honda Pal, I don't care... just make sure that you take it to work that day. The Idea behind Ride to Work day is simple, gain awareness, from pretty much everyone how much of a positive effect two wheeled transport has on transport... traffic, parking, entertainment... the works. A worthwhile effort to make, and come on.. it isn't like you don't love riding anyway!
Ride Safe all and give your fellow rider a wave! |

I try and avoid writing about concept bikes too much simply because no-one is ever going to build the damn things and there is a new Super-Hyper-Jet-Turbo-Frameless-Wheelless-Winged wonder every second day. This bike is a bit different, sure no-one is going to build it but the basic theory, could... and should be picked up by someone... the features incorporated in Igor Chak's concept IZH-Ural concept are (mostly) those that will start appearing on bikes within the next few years and I would love to see most of them used sooner rather than later.
