How bout the kids lay in bed and the bicycle drives itself around the block. Mom can check off exercise for the day.

These are sad times. . ..

Where does it all end?

But who am I to get in the way of progress . . . cue the gladiators and lions. While the empire crumbles around us just enjoy the ride. Lead pipes, lead cups, . . . no problem. Drinks for everyone. :roll:

I had a plan. The plan failed. Those bikes were given away to other kiddo's and replaced with other bikes with training wheels. They ride without side wheels now, but Not very often. Sad, no sidewalks around them and parents work. Must load bikes up to ride elsewhere. Limited family time. Weekends they choose other outdoor family activities.

Not Me! Where's my Peddler? My Roller Skates, My Custom HotRod? C'mon Lets Roll!!

Uhhh....uhhhh...sooo, kids won't have to learn how to balance? They won't have to worry about learning about coordination? The parents will be congratulating their kids, not for learning how to ride, but for learning to sit on the bike?

There goes our future. Motorcycles and scooters had better be self-balancing or there won't be any riders! Talk about lazy. What is next, putting on self-balancing pants? Why learn to walk? Let the pants do it!

Talk about a virtual exercise. Try keeping your balance after chomping down 25 Big Macs. Now this is livin! :lol:

It took me a minute but I got it . . .. :geek:

Good point! :D

Prison time for artificial intelligence and robotics? Who's responsible? The owner or the programmer/builder? Or just sentence the machine to the scrap yard. :o o_O

Another "Wow" moment in life . . .. These are strange times we live in. :roll:
