"This month, the RYNO, a
one-wheeled electric motorcycle, is slated to start rolling off the
assembly line. Why, one might ask, might human society need a
one-wheeled electric motorcycle? Well, we don’t, but that hasn’t stopped
us from churning out all kinds of vehicular experiments with dubious
utility—today’s prime example being the Segway. But the all-time poster
child for claptrap transportation might well be the monocycle, or the
monowheel, in all of its myriad forms over the last century."
