If there was one thing that you could invent to make your days on a bike more pleasurable what would that be?

    A wind cancellation device, allowing me to zip along with nothing but a very light headwind for cooling.

    I'd like a 'Phil Liggettron' motivational fictional commentary device; describing your training ride, in transit, as if you were in fact a world class rider competing in a classic or grand tour :D

    A fully supportive wife.

    Ow! Only joking, love. :oops:
    Making a cup of coffee is like making love to a beautiful woman. It's got to be hot. You've got to take your time. You've got to stir... gently and firmly. You've got to grind your beans until they squeak.
    And then you put in the milk.

    Forget a wind cancellation device I want a wind switch switch. So that any head wind is automatically converted to a tailwind.

    This from today when out with little or no wind and feeling as if I was going into a hard head wind.

    Oh and another thought as it is getting warmer - it is- are winds less dense even if the speed is the same :?:

    A really powerful magnet which repels cars so if one comes to close they spring off into the hedge on the oother side of the road 8)

    Pictures are better than words because some words are big and hard to understand.

    Would it not have to be a magnetic car to be repelled by another magnet? Otherwise you (being lighter than a car) would just get stuck to the car and dragged along. Even if it was a magnetic car, if you got the polarities wrong you would really be stuck.

    Im thinking more along the lines of the whirling blades that came out from the middle of the wheels on Bonds DB5.

    A bicycle for horses. If I can roll along at say 3 x my running speed, just think how fast a horse could go.

    I would like and electronic car ignition interupter device.

    I would use this to bring dangerous and abusive drivers to a halt so that I could sail past them with a freindly wave and wide grin.

    So their power steerer and servo assisted brakes stop working and they continue to cost right into you... sounds like a great plan!
