Beautiful! Just get rid of the power drill! Perhaps some pedals would help? I'm sure there's a pair or two in the bit box ...

I was all ready to be sarcastic........but what a beauty! Except for drill....is this yet another Bosch

It is without doubt a thing of beauty and interesting design.

There is no mention of weight, pedals or gears in the article, it is purely electric powered and runs for 10 minutes per battery pack, probably on the flat.

Wonder if the drill was used in it's fabrication?

In the small boat world, Water Craft magazine run a battery driven challenge for any small boat around a course at the Beale Park show. It's called the "Cordless Canoe Challenge". The winner gets a huge pile of makita gear.

This trike appears to have been made for a similar type of challenge. Great fun.
