The XploreAir X1, the world first production flying bicycle - 05 Jun 2013
Mandatory Credit: Photo by Jonathan Hordle / Rex Features (2473396z)
XploreAir X1 flying bike.
High-Flyers Can Travel To Work On Flying Bike
***VIDEO AVAILABLE***
It's a bird! It's a plane! No. The extraterrestrial-looking object in actual fact is a flying bicycle.
British designers, Yannick Read and John Foden, have today revealed the ultimate bicycle; a bike that transforms into an easy-to-operate aircraft requiring no licence to fly and capable of altitudes of up to 4,000ft.
They claim the XploreAir X1 is the world's first flying bike and is set to revolutionise the way we travel for work, leisure and adventure.
Promising commuters' traffic jams and parking fines are a thing of the past.
It takes off from any open space and once airborne it flies at 25mph for up to three hours at a time, powered by a biofuel 249cc motor and parachute.

The design boasts a folding bicycle that tows a lightweight trailer carrying a powerful fan; the entire assembly is light enough to be carried into a house or office and small enough to be taken on the tube or stored in the hallway of a flat.

The first ever pop-up zebra crossing, London, Britain - 19 Jun 2012
Mandatory Credit: Photo by Jonathan Hordle / Rex Features (1746449m)
Parent Yannick Read and son Bertie (5) on the pop-up zebra crossing
World's First Pop-Up Zebra Crossing
Trouble crossing the road? The world's first pop-up zebra crossing lets you stop traffic whenever you want.
With the ability to be installed on any road in less than a minute, testing locations have included the iconic black-and-white stripe crossing at Abbey Road, scene of the famous Beatles album cover shoot, and a residental road in North London.
The idea was developed by parents in Kingston-upon-Thames after their request for a safe crossing outside their children's school was turned down on the basis of cost; according to the Highways Agency, a basic zebra crossing costs an eye-watering GBP 114,000.
The pop-up zebra crossing costs less than GBP 50 to install and uses recycled linoleum, drain pipes and two orange balloons to create an effect that is almost indistinguishable from the real thing.
Spokesperson at the Environmental Transport Association (ETA) and the man behind the pop-up zebra crossing, Yannick Read, said: "The idea may be tongue-in-cheek, but the issue is deadly serious; with over 2,000 children killed or seriously injured each year on our roads, parents should never have to battle to have a genuine crossing installed."
But the Highways Agency are not so amused. A spokesman said: "It doesn't really sit well with the Highways Agency due to the speed and volume of traffic."
The crossing has been unveiled to mark Green Transport Week 2012, which runs until 24th June.
The Environmental Transport Association (ETA) was established in 1990 as an ethical motoring organisation and sustainable travel lobby group. Their aim is to raise awareness of the impact of transport on the environment and help individuals and organisations to make positive changes in their travel habits.

The world's smallest caravan towed by a mobility scooter. London,Britain - 18 Apr 2011
Small enough to be used legally on the pavement or inside a shop, the GBP 5,500 QTvan is so named because it caters to three peculiarly British obsessions: caravans; queuing and tea. The tiny caravan is ideally suited to queuing overnight for the sales or tickets for Wimbledon fortnight, and boasts tea-making facilities to make any long wait bearable.According to the Environmental Transport Association (ETA), the QTvan is ideal for the estimated 220,000 people who use a mobility scooter without breakdown cover, and who face the prospect of a very long wait should they suffer a mechanical fault or their battery runs flat.

The world's smallest caravan towed by a mobility scooter. London,Britain - 18 Apr 2011
Small enough to be used legally on the pavement or inside a shop, the GBP 5,500 QTvan is so named because it caters to three peculiarly British obsessions: caravans; queuing and tea. The tiny caravan is ideally suited to queuing overnight for the sales or tickets for Wimbledon fortnight, and boasts tea-making facilities to make any long wait bearable.According to the Environmental Transport Association (ETA), the QTvan is ideal for the estimated 220,000 people who use a mobility scooter without breakdown cover, and who face the prospect of a very long wait should they suffer a mechanical fault or their battery runs flat.
