Wouldn’t It Have Been Faster To Just Skate?

Not to mention it’s illegal to ride bikes on the sidewalk. But is it illegal to SKATE on the sidewalk? – Ms. Fix-It

Wow! I would love to see this thing lean in a fast sharp turn.
Maybe he only had one skate?
this is one of the most silliest things i’ve ever seen! @_@
I’d hate to see this thing on a dark night. I mean, you’re going along, you hit a bump and presto! the front forks fly out of the skate and you’re doing a real world impression of the Fail blog logo.
I want one! This would be great for me to use in my clown parades!
I admire the enthusiasm of this guy but, when they say ‘bike, skate or walk to work’ on the earth day posters they don’t mean simultaniously!
LOL
I know this place.
Museumsquartier, in Vienna, Austria
That’s exactly where the photo was taken.
He probably has a punch card down at the local ER – after 10 visits the 11th is free!
I need to get one of those. As it is, I walk in the ER door and get greeted by name.
You work there, I assume?
It’s legal to simultaneously skate and bike on a sidewalk at least up until now….
It would be funny to see him pop a wheelie.
Prosthetic cycling?
it’s his spare
Using the toe stopper on the skate is going to be reaaaaally interesting to see!
Finally – a four-wheel-drive bike. Oh wait, a five wheel-drive-bike.
He probably got tired with the city booting his vehicle…
What if he only had one skate? He took two broken things and made them whole. He should win an award from this site or something.
No wait, don’t be so harsh, this is an excellent kludge..
This brave man truly captured the essence of what it means to re-CYCLE old rubbish!
There is a gentleman in Western Australia, Australia, who actually makes these things for real. He puts two skateboarding trucks at the front with a standard bmx bike for the rest – youtube it and you’ll see some hardcore stunt vids!
He probably doesn’t realize his new ride comes equipped with an ejection seat, but he will as soon as his front “tire” finds a rock or small stick.
Smart.That fixed the other skate or the other tire of the bike.
he’ll be given das boot.
Riding bikes on the sidewalk is not illegal worlwide…
Believe it or not, My buddy makes these.. Here in Ontario, Canada.. a cop stopped him and said that it was unsafe.. Told him to not ride it anymore.. But it never stopped him. They are really interesting. I might just buy one haha
I can’t wait to see this guy on failblog after he hits a pot hole.
