Only in Amsterdam: Solar-powered rickshaw hits the streets
Thomas Lundy is a man with a dream. That dream is to create the most eco-friendly vehicles known to man while giving his legs a bit of a rest. His solar-powered rickshaw is his genesis.
We say solar powered but it's actually semi-solar because he uses his legs to get around as well. You see, Lundy spent the summer pedalling the mean streets of Amsterdam making himself a living as a rickshaw cabbie and knackering himself out in the process.
His Solarshaw (he can have that name) gives him a little extra 'leccy drive, so his legs don't become the size of Mark Cavendish's. Like a Sinclair C5 with solar input or a Nissan Leaf you have to pedal 95% of the time.
