Meh.

It's still just a concept. I wonder how this guy managed to get attention for it, out of all the college kids in the world who must be designing vehicles.

Not really... why can't you take 5 minutes to put your own opinion of the article you want us to discuss?

I did post my opinion. The bike looks like the turrets from Portal. That's my comment on the bike.

It looks incredibly unsafe.

Wow.
Stupidest thing ever, they probably can not build it safe enough for a human to get in.
How do you look behind you, how do you stop, how do you turn and how the hell do you stay comfortable?!

This is an interesting concept, but I'd like to see some sort of front cover to put my fear of having a milkshake impact my groin area at 50 miles per hour at ease.

I love that dude. I always wondered what gave him the idea to create that suit though, it's ingenious.

Yea I know, If I sneeze when I'm jogging I usually lose control of my feet and collapse on the sidewalk or veer into motor traffic.

Seriously?
Sucks if you have allergies near an avenue.

Yeah, I imagine going 40 mph into a light pole.
Make sure you don't want to have kids before going for a ride.
