That G-Strider sure looks wizzer, I'd love to ride around on that. I'd definitely feel in the SR world riding that thing.

In 2060, I think my ride would be a tricked out Rascal X. The grandkids can keep the Rapiers and Blitzens. The Rascal X will give me the independence I need!

Anyone want to knock up the SR stats for the G-Strider 2060?
I'm not a bike fan generally, but that does look fun :lick: |

The second bike isn't really that futuristic, but the fact that it is two wheel drive is very interesting. It sounds like the benefits of it far outweigh cost.

That's as maybe, but it still looks like it could be any old motocross bike, none of which are anything like as pretty as they are functional.

Eh, I look at the Hot Wheel and all I can think is, "Papoose."
The G-Strider's cornering lights beg for side-mounted firmpoint weapons. Image doing a little zig-zag to flick on the lights: "This is the left hand pod of doom. This is the right hand pod of doom." |

Or, when the owner of said bike is sleeping, install the gyromount and remote rigging gear, along with about 2kg of C-12. Call them up during mid morning commute and vid phone them what was done. then drive them somewhere and hit the button, if they hop off, the bike follows.

Heh, 4-wheeled motocycle with a dodge viper engine. Read about that one last year, man that is a sweet suicide machine.

Wow that Dodge Tomahawk is rather cool. Nice music too. As a SR bike, I'd probably try to partially enclose it, kinda like the Akira bike, just because I've always had that nightmare about roaring along on a bike and running into a mana barrier. It'd need some armor too, because it really looks like the bike is 50% (at least) engine. Good for speed I imagine, but would be prone to getting shot up a but quicker.
