Basically a bike that walks, it has 4 legs, with as large of a
foot
base as balance requires. The same human pedal
poweredness as a bicycle, but with an almost un-necessary
amount of gears and cogs and levers.
3 speeds:
Walking, one foot at a time
Jogging, 2
feet
at a time
(front left and back right then front right and back
left)
Running, both back feet, then both front feet
I'm guessing by this point you're thinking WHY?
Well,
because why spend 2 hrs on you road bike cruising down the
highway wearing some kind of fancy skin tight clothes, when
you can
be roaming the park in some kind of cat walking thing which
is
much cooler, while getting your workout in less time.
Maybe some kind of steering thing should be available too
