    The first one was taken in 2004 during morning rush hour in Siem Reap, Cambodia. Notice in the second one that there are no pedals on the "learner" bicycles.

    Love it ... and that's as fine a pic as I've seen of it. I don't see it so often now that I'm retired from working in dear Dundee. Got to have my wits about me driving down around there these days.

    Saves them banging their ankles (that hurts).

    I wonder, does anyone make a bicycle with removable pedals?
    i.e. start as above, then add them when they have got the hang of balancing.

    The better business model is to sell them a new bike (with pedals) I guess

    Difficult to think of personal transportation examples we've not seen for this thread already, anyone got a:
    unicycle
    hover board
    jet ski
    snow ski

    ... perhaps it isn't so hard after all

    (multiply by number of power options; human (can't go far), photovoltaic (can go all around the world) or just standard petrol)

    Good additions there Mike, thanks.

    I use "shoes" most of the time, or a boring standard car.

    Add electrically assisted bicycle?
