Bicilavadora I bet no one here has one! ( If you must know- it's a bike-powered washing machine)

Saw this and had to post it where else but here!

From the link:

"Our friend Alyssa Danigelis over at Discovery recently found this great video of a bike-powered washing machine. It makes so much sense! I suppose that, with a friend, you could get a lot of laundry going by having him or her do a bike-powered spin dry before putting clothes out to finish drying on a line."

The washer on Gilligan's Island is no longer far-fecthed.

Of course you could be pedaling a generator to run a standard washer or charge a bunch of large batteries.

Could be a bumpy ride shifting into spin! Build up those calves and quads with some oversudsing.

Sooo, the part where your legs get too tired and need rest would be the 'soak' cycle?

I want to know what the rpm of the spin cycle is. I wonder if anyone can get it up to the classic Frigidaire speed--odds are no.
