Comments on: The Schweeb: Personal Pedal Power Pod http://gas2.org/2009/07/16/the-schweeb-personal-pedal-power-pod/ What is the future of fuel? What's new? What's next? Since 2007, Gas 2 has covered a rapidly changing world coming to terms with its oil addiction.

How about some kind of spring mechanism on the front or back so that if you bump into someone it will give them a gentle push, speeding them up and relieving some of your frustration at their slowness at the same time.

Needs help. Maybe pedal power with electric generation incorporated into the mechanism. Sawtooth shaped monorail with a long neg. grade to generate power and a short,steep incline where pedals would be needed for assist. Great idea. I love it too! The future is fast aproaching. Git-r-done! Cool idea! Needs help. Maybe pedal power with electric generation incorporated into the mechanism.

The future is fast aproaching. Git-r-done!

Seems like a win win. I saw this on a show last night, if you’re the slow poke in front of the line, the person behind you can get behind you and make you go faster. Seems like a win win.

Nobody wants to have to work to get around... make it run on electricity 2) Everyone get's their own 'pod'? How terribly anti-social. Make sizeable cabin's that move many people at once.
