Anais Nin: You live like this, sheltered, in a delicate world, and you believe you are living. Then you read a book… or you take a trip… and you discover that you are not living, that you are hibernating. The symptoms of hibernating are easily detectable: first, restlessness. The second symptom (when hibernating becomes dangerous and might degenerate into death): absence of pleasure. That is all. It appears like an innocuous illness. Monotony, boredom, death. Millions live like this (or die like this) without knowing it. They work in offices. They drive a car. They picnic with their families. They raise children. And then some shock treatment takes place, a person, a book, a song, and it awakens them and saves them from death. Some never awaken.

WILD !!! >_< !!! Camper Bike and Kart

This takes recycling, camping, travel, and resourcefulness to a whole 'nother level. I love it!!! Created by Kevin Cyr, it is a fully functioning structural piece. If you look at the end of the bike, where the camper starts and the bike stops, it helps you to understand how it was constructed.

Maybe it was constructed with a flat plane so it can be fastened into the bottom of the structure? IDK... Look at more pictures here

Here is the sweeter one though. The Camper Kart
 
Even more perfect for camping. All you have to do is walk to your local park. This makes a great gift for a homeless person (Imagine a park full of these) or a drifter. 
Here is the diagram so you can see the sleeping area and the storage. It has a crank for it's collapsing capability.  This was partially funded by a FEAST grant.

This will be perfect for my trip to Colorado in the distant future.
