One of those bikes that looks the dogs bits, but after you have ridden 100 yards you need to visit a osteopath.

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

Different....
It looks uncomfortable to ride though, Your arse would be slung low in that seat and your feet way forward on the footrests.. Then you'd have to hunch forward to reach the bars.

An odd design IMO.

Not only that, but I have just noticed in pictures, the stand is too short...........it looks like you have to have a bit of 2X4 in your pocket at all times ;D
