Treadmill Bike

August 16th, 2006

Running is great exercise. Personally, I only run when being chased, and even then, I like to get somewhere. Running outside provides nice scenery, fresh air, and often a feeling of actually traveling some distance. Running on a track always bores me because I never felt I got anywhere and always lost count obsessing about what lap I was on. My least favorite is running on a treadmill.

Worse then running on a track, a treadmill literally gets you no where. Of course the positive aspects of a treadmill are a controlled inside environment, less impact on joints, and you can do it in a limited space.

Bicycling is a nice alternative to running due to even less impact on joints, and like running, I prefer to do this outside.

Now you can combine the worst of all of these elements into one activity using the Treadmill Bike! Take all the fun of running on a treadmill and stick it on top of a bicycle. Is any of this really necessary?

This “vehicle” is hilarious and it’s hard to decide if this isn’t actually a joke. The narrator of the video even has a hard time holding back the giggles. I just hope no one steal my idea for a stationary bicycle for the pool.
