It includes this gem:

Now I can ride along a busy street or go on a trail in the woods. I have never hit a pedestrian – touch wood – because I don't ride on the pavement. Cars are excellent echo targets, so I can easily avoid them. I won't say I've never had an accident, but every activity holds an element of risk.

Now that is awesome

There was a TV programme a couple of years ago (may have been an episode of Horizon) where this guy was teaching kids the technique, it also followed some kids who use echolocation to get about. Really impressive stuff.
