It’s not often we see an entirely new form factor in transportation design, but the Ryno Micro-Cycle definitely fits the description. Invented by mechanical engineer Chris Hoffmann, what started out as an idle thought–his daughter saw a one-wheeled motorcycle in a videogame and Hoffmann wondered if he could build one that worked–became an actual, rideable vehicle:

We caught up with Hoffmann at the World’s Fair Nano in San Francisco and snagged a Q&A with him about the Micro-Cycle, Ryno’s evolution as a company and the transportation industry in general:

We’ll post more on the hydrofoil craft he mentioned as soon as it becomes available.
