Wheels: The Bubble Trike

The problem with motorcycles is that while they are small and light weight (and therefore both fast and fuel efficient), they can get you killed. Yet another designer has tried to tackle this problem by building an enclosed trike. Quick, nimble, and maybe you won't die. It's a good combination.

Unfortunately it looks goofy. If there is anything military procurement has taught me, it is that the cooler design usually wins in the marketplace. Goofy won't cut it.
