Bike/lawnmower hybrids make mowing a ride in the park
I just recently bought a house, which, after years of renting, means a whole new series of challenges -- the most frightening of which is undoubtedly maintaining an entire yard.
The yard isn't huge, so I've been thinking about getting a push mower -- partially to avoid using gas, but also because I'll probably mow so infrequently that it seems pointless to drop hundreds of dollars on some grass-consuming monster.
However, I'm a little lazy, so the idea of pushing a non-powered mower in the Texas heat isn't exactly appealing -- which is why I love these bike/lawnmower hybrids. It's hard to tell whether or not these would actually work, but I don't see why not. Plus, the modification seems fairly straightforward (especially if you're handy with a soldering iron).
If nothing else, using one of these to cut the grass will be a funny way to introduce myself to the neighbors.
