@MLE_online I reject your artificial linear continuum and substitute a dork orthogonality where I immediately dive into how to build one without regard to its aesthetics.
@smellsofbikes Rejecting it doesn't exempt you from it, just like putting a sovereign citizen license plate on your car doesn't actually stop the cops from pulling you over and arresting you

@MLE_online I'm trying to decide what would constitute 'insane'

@MLE_online dammit I'm square dork aren't I

@smellsofbikes That really depends on how you feel about the bike

Are you cool or are you a square? Your reaction to the bike says it all.
@MLE_online@social.afront.org The world would be more fun if more people built contraptions like this.
It certainly is some dedication, and true audacity, I can't stop but worry about clothing or something getting sucked into a belt, so I have to suggest mounting the engine on the rear rack but honestly why not, it is still better than a car. -

@rachel what kind of crazy handlebars?!

@MLE_online yep, that qualifies I guess
I have to say that magical rim pulley with no visible means of attachment seems fake, and it looks like a four stroke to me, and surely that clutch wouldn't do anything with a Bungie cord for tension, but full marks for vision

@Thumptastic3 @MLE_online @rachel I like this, it has an umbrella. And it floats.

@ai6yr @MLE_online @rachel I certainly wouldn't want to stop too fast on that! Peal your face like a carrot.

@MLE_online I'm vaguely cool, but I've got square wheels. I'll get my shit sorted in the next century though. I promise.
