Beer Bikes hit the streets around the world

I saw a cool bike on Zedomax today. It’s a Beer Bike by City Cycle that lets you have a few drinks while touting around the city, cool idea until someone gets real drunk and falls into the path of a oncoming truck. I think a larger version about the size of a real tour bus would be a great business in tourist locations. I was wondering how many other people had this idea, turns out there are a ton of these around the world, have a look at the other designs below.

“The City Cycle is the result of an extensive design process. Development included form studies, product benchmarks, market and field research and product refinement based on user feedback and engineering analysis.

A small team of expert design/engineer/fabricators took a no-holds-barred approach to the project, putting creativity and design excellence as a project priority.

The result of this adventure into ergonomics, socializing, function, form and materials is a device unparalleled in the world today.
