Vehicle: Wind
Wheel Wing   (+4, -1)  [vote for, against]
A wheel and a large glider wing.

There is a bicycle wheel with a set of hand-cranks or pedals is attached directly to its hub. This wheel is situated at the tip of a large glider wing of indeterminate dimensions from this vantage point. Underneath the wing a perhaps partially nude person lies prostrate with wheeled casters at various points distributing forces somewhat evenly.

We will send you money if you refrain from clarifying this part of the idea.

I'm a little unclear about the part between "Wheel" and "evenly.".

I demand an illustration.

Is this a ground vehicle or is it intended to be launched in the air?

Is it a vehicle, or a static artwork?

Is it a vehicle or an instrument of torture?
