Okay all,
I've been tinkering with the idea of building a MB. I decided that I want to build a velomobile MB. I've been putting the pen to the paper working out some designs. Nothing I liked. I ran across the smallest production car yet, the Peel P50 produced in Peel, Isle of Man in 1962-1963. 50 of these little guys were made. It had a 49cc 3 speed moped engine in it.
I'm thinking I would like to take this design, and turn it into a velomobile MB.
Here's a link to wikipedia give some info on it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peel_P50
My riding conditions are mostly flat, around down riding. Top speed down town is 25 mph anyway, so I'm not looking to get this thing to that speed. I'm thinking between 15 and 20 would be fine where where I need to go. I have a 3 mile one way trip to work.
What does everyone think of the idea?
