Shortly after this picture was taken, the engineering instinct kicked in. The vehicle is now a swerve drive tricycle built for seven, with room for two passengers and a load of basketballs.

I know the economy's in a ditch, but doing this to get your team to St. Louis is just sad...

Real goats on a bicycle would tip over less. And probably smell better.

Now, put your right arm in
Your right arm up
Right arm in
Then you shake it all about
And then you do the goaty bikey
And drive yourself around
That's what it's all about, hey!

Show of hands; Who wants to get off the bicycle?

This is taking the idea of a clown car WAY too far

That bike needs a decent pair of horns warning folks to steer clear of those goats!

Is this a disfunctional democratic cycling squad?

Why is everyone signaling a right turn expect for one hold out?

There's a rebel in every crowd. :rolleyes:

Folks, this bike can ride CIRCLES around you....

6 people just didn't cut it for those guys. They had to try for seven. Unfortunately the extra person's worth of torque on the chain caused it to snap and knock the 7th person off, leaving them with 6 again. If that's not a sign that they went too far I don't know what is.

Wayne Doenges

Just before the arguement started the question was asked "Who wants to drive?"

iPenguin

Because even engineers have the desire to shout "Look Ma! No hands!" when testing their inventions.

Karibou

"Hey guys, maybe we could just drive this in front of our robot cart to clear a path at competitions! Much better than 'ROBOT, ROBOT COMING THROUGH, ROBOTTTTTTT'!"

Round and round and round they go. When they'll get tired of messing with her, nobody knows!

Clearly they are researching for next years 7-motor drivetrain.

*strongest guy decided to petal backwards* "and that is why you keep metal out of the jags"

Testing out potential designs for the coopertion element of a future game. It's still 3v3 - now speculate where the 7th human player will come from.

6 guys waving enthusiastically. 1 girl pedaling for all of them.

FIRST creates strong women.

Let me make sure I've got this right.
It's a bicycle but it has 3 wheels. It's a 7 person bicycle but it has 8 seats. And it's driven by a bunch of goats.
OK, I get it it -- this has something to do with FIRST!

This tops all of those people that can ride a bike with no handle Bars.
FIRST members can ride a 7 person bike with no handle bars. Yea beat that world!

If FIRST allows each team to have seven drivthe on the field, then all that practice on the seven person bike will have been even more worthwhile.
