While the electric superbike may be just around the corner, the Bombardier Embrio concept motorcycle offers a more inspiring look at what we’ll be riding in the future.  It seems odd, but people seem to be riding segways….  The Embrio is uses ‘training wheels’ until it hits 20 km/h, and then it becomes and extreme unicycle.  It’s powered by hydrogen fuel cells.

“This hydrogen fuel cell powered, gyroscopically balanced, one-wheeled recreational and commuting vehicle provides an extraordinary vision of the kind of personal transport we could be using 20 years from now. The design brief for Bombadier EMBRIO Concept was to “create highly innovative, functional and exciting products to exceed people’s recreational needs” and find the “next thing” in recreational vehicles. The result is a futuristic and minimalistic one-wheeler that is as about far away as you can get from the conventional image of a uni-cycle - a mode of transport normally associated with circuses and street parades.” - Giz Magazine
