The Smike in your picture seems to be an electric / electric-assist bike (or at least, it has a electric hub motor in the front wheel). It seems to me that it'll be quite difficult to power that with our own 2 feet.

Thanks Traum! ill give them a call. ive done sidecars before with 2 ppl riding and i find it alright. Its definitely a lot of effort but i could also use a good exercise. I just want my cousin to be able to enjoy Stanley park.
