Interesting. Better than many I've seen with the PV panels at least facing the sky, partially, and not being overshadowed by the rider.

Well, that would depend on the direction you're going... Head north at noon time (in the northern hemisphere) and the rider would be in the way.
What you really need on your bike is a Mr Fusion:

Yes, much cleaner than the old Mr Fission model.

ROFL! Mr. Fission indeed!
Great picture. Though I have a feeling this is not a real one. As far as I know Einstein was never at those tests. He was not part of the Trinity project either.
I'm wondering if I need to point this out or not, for the readers under about 30 or so (now I'm revealing my carefully kept secret that I'm just a wee bit past 30 myself :suspicious:); that Mr. Fusion comes from the "Back to the Future" movies, where it powers the time-traveling car. It runs on household garbage...
