I am building a fully enclosed streamlined fairing for the vehicle, I can mount the solar cells on that and maintain a streamlined shape. I am interested in creating a vehicle that can be used to tour the United States (and beyond?) teaching people about how they can implement renewable energies into their lives. I want to teach people about reducing dependance on foreign oil. How increasing the national speed limit on side roads to 55mph would allow the fuel miser to take advantage of the lower speed limit and get better fuel efficiency, giving tax bonuses for buying less fuel as well as producing an alternative fuel to reduce the need for the pump.

The bike is more than a bike. It is a micro caravan of experimentation and learning.
