fv1609 Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Now if they could fix a saddle to it & give you some decent controls. That would be an interesting ride & a lot safer than being stuck on top of a horse! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be an interesting ride & a lot safer than being stuck on top of a horse! It is amazing how it recovers itself after slipping on ice. Another thing is that it still employs basic animal / human joint form, obviously there is nothing to beat that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be an interesting ride & a lot safer than being stuck on top of a horse! A horse has is actually 2x4, the front legs just kep the nose of the floor. Has an excellent cross country performance, self levelling suspension, built in autonomus control system, the trouble is emissions and the guidance system is prone to faults. :-D Or as a friend described one to me the other day 'A lunatic with four sledge hammers attached'.
