So don't stand on the brakes if your going backward. Sounds reasonable.* I'll see your Police Spyder and raise a Messerschmit K-200.

It's funny every time. But your video does make a case for easier training.

Well, here's an interesting thing. It appears to be a Mark Murphy shell with pontoon fenders, but it's from Germany. Probably splash-copied like the Myers Manx.

It's an electric/human hybrid, the K-25e


Quote:
The Messerschmitt KR 25-E has hydraulic disc brakes
Achim Adlfinger obtained the official license for the Messerschmitt name
The Messerschmitt KR 25-E features joystick-controlled rear-wheel steering
The Messerschmitt KR 25-E weighs a claimed 85 kg (187 lb)
The Veloschmitt was a two-seater velomobile, the latter term referring (more or less) to a recumbent tricycle enclosed in an aerodynamic body.
[snip]
Adlfinger says that the KR 25-E is now being produced by French velomobile company iDMOOVE, and is priced at €12,800 (about US$14,308). A larger and faster KR 45-E model is in the works, along with the pure-electric KR 200.

And here's another one, the KR-2000. I like the stance:


*Clutch in, steer only.
