Ye gods!

I don't look in this group for a week after complimenting Joel Kuester on
his hoverbike and the whole place is fulla' them!

Most cool -- being as it's late, I'm not going to post to each one, but
guys... you make me wanna toss my meager attempts in the trash and throw in
the towel.. Adrian came up with two in the time it took me to get one done
and finally photographed... bah. You guys are just too darned amazing!

Anyway... Here's my humble attempt:

The Ferrari x3-TurboFan hoverbike.  The ducted fans are mounted on flexible
"arms" that allow them to adjust for optimal performance. The arms provide
the fuel and electrical lines to each of the three engines. It comes
complete with leather seats, stereo, auto pilot, windscreen projected
Heads-Up Display - and a luggage compartment so your Gucci attache' case
doesn't get exposed to the elements.

It's the personal vehicle of choice for the CEO/Founder of Jericho Tactical
Industries:

Hope you like it -- comments/suggestions/jokes welcome.

Well having not seen any of the others I can say that your hoverbike is pretty cool of its own merits. I especially like the unorthodox use of the windows and wheels. -Mike Petrucelli (...) (23 years ago, 16-Aug-01, to lugnet.space)
