Hello everyone sooo glad i found this site its awesome!

Post: # 127223Post hippybikebuilder »

Hi my names tim wildman i live in wales south wales to be exact ..ish lol,
anyway i am an avid inventor of all things that in some way make life easier or even better cheaper and in turn better for our beloved mother earth.
im currently embarking on a mission ...building a EBIKE with a difference well for a start it is going to have four wheels as apposed to three or two which i guess makes it fall under the qaudcycle catergory,
the electricity will be supplied by a mixture of batteries and a onboard self charging unit so hopefully if i can get the whole set up working the idea is two people will be able to ride it for long periods of time without stopping to recharge..... well thats the plan lol will keep you all informed and once i get started pictures will follow just as soon as i ..1 start building the thing 2.. take pictures ..and 3.. work out how to put said pictures on here lol ..
oh by the way awesome site ,ost impressed with all the innovations.. live happy be free from your friendly happy hippy bike builder.

Hello!

If you can pull that off, get a loan from Triados Bank to fund production and sales, and I'll invest in it. (But it sounds like rather an impossible idea given the cost of batteries and the performance of generating technologies...)

Hello, and welcome.

I like the sound of your idea... and even though it sounds impossible, I salute that. The impossible has been proven to be possible many times over the years, I think! ;)
