Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Green Speed Bike Moves by the Power of the Elements

— July 9, 2009 — Autos
It seems we're going greener than electric vehicles quite quickly and the Green Speed Air-Powered Motorcycle is setting the pace.

The bike designed by Edwin Yi Yuan is looking towards the air as an alternative primary fuel. The Green Speed is a combination of elements incorporating the sun to collect enough energy (through solar panels) to compress the air and propel the bike.

The bike is light (carbon-fiber frame) and aerodynamic which will help combat the usual stereotypes of air-powered vehicles (slow speed and run time). This is a futuristic eco-innovation that is speeding into a cleaner planet for all of us.
