I guess we're going to get drive-by-wire in bicycles, since few of those have any mechanical connection between the handle bars and the front wheel.

I'm not into bicycles much, but I always figured recumbants would be the bikes of the future. Much easier to use the power of your legs while seated pushing forward than down.

Even though I know what 'donk' means in this context, that's still a pretty funny statement.
