i wanna race this against those funkified solar scooters...
SolarEVolution gets all shizzy with the 4wizzy
not quite sure if these guys are based in Vermont, Santa Cruz or both (and actually the more i think about it, yeah, probably both) but they are called SolarEVolution and they do make some ubercute gizmos; solar ATVs, kite propelled ships.. they are your basic above-average eco-tinkerers, have some cool projects, and an interesting marketing plan; they don't want to sell the vehicles! Maybe, like those open-source DIY Scooters, because they are so Mad Max-y, they want you to get your hands all dirty if you really want one. Or maybe they just like being who they are.. so what do they want to do? I'll tell ya. They want to go around to your high schools, elks lodges, jr. colleges and other places where keen minds congregate, offer workshops, and have every participant make their very own solar ATV. i love it! they say their teaching kit is 80% done, and are now ready to hit the road. and when i say hit the road...
