- robotdrone, on 02/10/2008, -6/+247Is it sturdy? Looks like if it hit some pebbles, it would turn to rubble.
- gonegoogling, on 02/10/2008, -12/+201looks like they are havin a gay old time
- inactive, on 02/10/2008, -9/+191Wait till it hits 88mph.
- bunit03057, on 02/10/2008, -11/+186I would crash that thing so fast and end up with ton splinter in my ass. I should stick with Flintstones vitamins for now.
- Greatn3ss, on 02/10/2008, -11/+165Al Gore approves.
- badassninja, on 02/10/2008, -3/+112Alright. These guys wear loin clothes and make it look good and they build things with their bare hands. They are way more man then I am.
- Hermitwise, on 02/10/2008, -0/+63They're about to hit a chestnut tree
- geminus, on 02/10/2008, -0/+41They're mountain people from Baguio City in the Philippines.
- Xiney, on 02/10/2008, -0/+41I wonder how your grandfather felt about that.
- Tunguska, on 02/10/2008, -7/+45The race leader even has a collectors edition Bamm-Bamm headband.
- cambob76, on 02/10/2008, -2/+36The wonders of modern technology.
- cmccool, on 02/10/2008, -3/+35ummm...this "bike" seems well suited for going downhill, notsomuch on the uphill.
- mal1964, on 02/10/2008, -5/+37Yabba-Dabba-Doo!
- benroy, on 02/10/2008, -8/+38MacGyver was just out of frame to the left, while helping the Waponi scouts escape from Murdoch's Volcano Fortress, also known as Waponi Woo.
The vehicles were crudely constructed from palm fronds, sand and sea-turtle saliva. - Xondar, on 02/10/2008, -3/+32Buried as inaccurate. Those wheels are clearly not made of stone.
- sdellboy, on 02/10/2008, -0/+28Son of a Brachiosaurus!
- Spuy767, on 02/10/2008, -2/+28Flinstones my ass, that is the original Razor Scooter.
- Oomsoup, on 02/10/2008, -2/+26Hahahaha, nicely done. :D
- estacado, on 02/10/2008, -2/+26The bike doesn't have an injun.
- centran, on 02/10/2008, -1/+23close the comments. You win.
- RubberBinder, on 02/10/2008, -1/+22I love those vitamins =D

- redfox2600, on 02/10/2008, -1/+21How can he approve? They cut up a ***** tree!
- Trax91, on 02/10/2008, -0/+19You gonna see some serious *****.
- DemDude, on 02/10/2008, -1/+20If it's even half as fast as it looks, I would so have pissed my loincloth by then...
And did you notice that they actually have flat tires? Those gotta be a pain in turns ^^ - phybere, on 02/10/2008, -0/+18Ah, so they leave home and never come back?
- Serrux, on 02/10/2008, -0/+18How do you think they got here in the first place?!
- urbanclock, on 12/08/2008, -1/+19Where in the ***** world do they spell brake "break"?
- exodii, on 02/10/2008, -3/+19Dugg for linking to the actual pic, not a stupid blog. Also for being original.
- brentinkc, on 02/10/2008, -0/+15Actually, I believe the energy is "stored" in the form of potential energy, not gravity, as gravity is actually a force.
- lukebond007, on 02/10/2008, -3/+17I wonder where the flux capacitor is kept.
- Adamesq, on 02/10/2008, -0/+11Dugg down for not reading previous comments before posting your duplicate.
- MacBandit, on 02/10/2008, -1/+12I don't see anything broken on them. Are you referring to the BRAKES?!
- MacBandit, on 02/10/2008, -2/+13It's powered by stored energy. You push it up a hill and it stores this energy in the form of gravity by which you can release by pointing it down the hill. All very eco friendly. Except for the killing of trees of course.
- 1807, on 02/10/2008, -3/+14that's more like a yaba daba do not
- hiro, on 02/10/2008, -5/+15Breaks, peddles, genious? Can't anyone on here spell?
- NYankee2003, on 02/10/2008, -1/+11hmm, kinda fancy. Mr. Slate pays well, but he doesn't pay THAT well.
Looks like someone switched to Geico. - forgetfulca, on 02/10/2008, -0/+9Right, and unless they're all leaving, there's an equal amount of up-hill-going to be done.
- Shawn4168, on 02/10/2008, -0/+9It's not like the mountain your parents used to climb to go to school. In fact, it's the opposite. Downhill both ways.
- edilclyde, on 02/10/2008, -1/+10they are just a tribe of people that has been secluded from civilazation for centuries, they have been so secluded that even when the spanish empire invaded philippines for 300 years a century ago, they were not affected by it. the goverment are helping them thou, like giving them land rights and donations
- rgremill, on 02/10/2008, -1/+10I'd like to see them race a Segway.
- brentinkc, on 02/10/2008, -1/+9Uh, yeah they do
- Berkana, on 02/10/2008, -1/+9Wow. That's so primitive it's awesome.
Does it just coast, or is there some way to power it? I'm guessing that the peddle powers the brake. - DiggLive, on 02/10/2008, -0/+8Bada-bing!
- ParaSwarm, on 02/10/2008, -3/+11Thank god he invented the Internet so that we can discuss these topics.
- qwkredfox, on 02/10/2008, -1/+8you have to tie it to your dinosaur to go uphill. duh people. >:(
- megaton, on 02/10/2008, -0/+7Hmm... actually, I'd have liked to have seen some explanation of what exactly we're looking at.
These guys appear to be riding on paved roads--which, it seems, would be all these bikes are good for--so I have to question how primitive their culture actually is. Is this a festival in which they dress up like their ancestors? Are they really a primitively-living culture that happens to live near civilization?
Anybody know any details about this? - Perigren, on 02/10/2008, -0/+7and I don't see what your point of posting was there.
