There was a few items at the event that were clearly uncommon.
This device is propelled through an eight-speed rear cluster, and instead of pedals it has a set of treads you step on alternately. Featured at the Fuji booth. Most riders fell, probably as it was not designed for gravelly paths.
Kid Tandem- designed to have a child sit up front for a parent to keep an eye on 'em. The child can pedal but not steer or brake. I'm pretty sure Elmo had been drinking, so that was a good design plan. This thing was ridden all the time around the expo area and up and down the entry road. It has the turning radius of a Crew Cab Dually.
Bad to wheelie too.
Yep. A Honda Goldwing motorcycle with a bike rack. What makes it even better is that the rider brought a bicycle to an event that is based on you riding one of ~250 demo bikes that are already there. A person in the next car back told me they had brought a bicycle, and that it looked really unstable on the freeway getting there.
Sometimes the path well worn is more popular for a reason...
