Breaking news....

Avinox has beaten Musk to it and landed two bikes on the red planet! Is there nothing they can't do???

Just wondering how far this could run before the fanboys spot the BS. :ROFLMAO:

I've heard the MTBing on Mars is fantastic. The grit is hell on chains though. Make sure you use a wax based lube.

Actually, with Mars' lower gravity (about one-third of Earth's) and much thinner atmosphere, cycling there could be amazing. You could launch jumps hundreds of meters long and tens if not hundreds of meters high. Even an old chap like me could pull off some impressive airtime!

And with a 625 Wh battery, a full ascent of Olympus Mons - the highest volcano in the Solar System - might actually be within range... 8-). Or just pushing on the pedals would do it...

The only minor drawback might be the occasional punctured pressure suit after a crash... :-/

Great suggestion for the next xkcd cartoon!

I don’t see any charging outlets. My EMTB would become a brick after one ride …too bad really. I guess I’m out. 😉
