Amazing Real Life Excitebike, Plus Video!
Justin Harder (sessy name!) went and built himself a real-life Excitebike. Okay, a bicycle that looks like a motorcycle that looks like one from the game of the same name.

This is a video of the Batpod inspired motorcycle some engineering genius managed to piece together in Vietnam. It's pretty damn impressive considering it looks like it was built entirely out of parts that had fallen off other cars. Granted it's not something I'd risk MY life... / Continue →
