Car-O-Cycle
The wind blowing around you like a mototcycle with the safety of a car. | |
Motorcycles are fun but dangerous since you have nothing
around you to absorb impact from a collision and they're
easily lost in blind spots due to their size.
Putting the motorcycle on top of a car body, then putting a
rollbar over the rider would allow you to drive in the wind
for
a motorcycle
ride effect with the safety and visibility of a
car.
You'd add a seatbelt and airbags as well.

Presumably it is intended that the "rider" dies of boredom ? |
|
| |
Many small spaceframed sports cars can be configured for exactly this effect simply by unclipping body panels. |

As somebody who's owned, ridden (and crashed)
motorcycles, I can tell you, the fun part is the riding,
not the crashing. |

This is probably the best idea I have read on this page. [+] |

Have you heard of convertibles? Or is that the joke. This sounds like a convertible. |
|
| |
In a convertible you're sitting in a cockpit behind a
windshield, with this you're astride a cycle body so you're
entirely in the wind. |
|
| |
It's a motorcycle on top of a car for the protection of a car
with the flying through the air effect of a motorcycle. |
|
| |
So when you crash, you fly through the air. I’m
sensing a flaw... |
