[TheThinkTank] How To Make A Bike Blender

[rachael spiewak]

here is the sopo bike blender <http://sopobikes.org/programing/blender>.
the front fork is extended to the ground (no wheel) and rear triangle sits
in some kind of trainer, so the whole thing is stationary.  a tray with arms
is welded to the seat stays, and an old blender sits in the tray.  the
bottom of the blender was removed, and long bolt and rubber wheel stick out
of there.. the rubber wheel makes contact with the rear wheel.  rear wheel
turns, rubber wheel turns, bolt turns, blades turn, blended rum drink is
made.
