I will not rest until it looks like a TRON cycle.
All electric - instant accelleration - and the ability to make right angle turns...
Too bad light cycles only came in yellow, blue, and red. Maybe I need to make a GREEN one!

Yeah, Ben - send Mr Doggett a note. Your motorbike is a fantastic example of ecomodding.

I just got off the phone from a 17 minute interview with Scott Doggett.
He said he would send out an e-mail when his article is ready.
I just hope I added some useful information for his story!

The BBC radio interview didn't pan out. Between some 12 hour shifts at work, the minimal business hours overlap between the UK and North America time zones, and their program deadline, they weren't able to contact me to time. But now the people at "Carolina Traveler", a general interest show based out of a Charlotte, NC TV station, are interested in doing a segment on my car.

That sounds a little easier to coordinate.
Another thing about the BBC interest that had me scratching my head ... how well would the Aerocivic have translated on the radio? It's a visual topic, best suited to web/print/tv.
Keep us posted on the the TV show. That sounds interesting.

Bennelson: I also talked to Scott on the phone this morning. Fun stuff!

The editor of "Missouri Life" magazine wants to do some sort of article about ecomodders, so if anyone of you out there in Missouri are interested post up or PM some contact info, so I can forward it to her.

Why weren't you doing it when you were back home? Perhaps Rick will be around in time for this?

I"m in Missouri, but we don't want pictures of my car associated with ecomodding
Rick or Lovemysan would be better candidates, IMO.
