elliptiGO glide bike selected as a semi-finalist in the Sundance Channel and Lexus "Big Idea" Contest

A few weeks ago we found out that the elliptiGO glide bike was selected as one of 25 semi-finalists in the Sundance Channel and Lexus "Big Idea" Contest. We're hoping that the resemblance to an outdoor elliptical trainer will take a back seat to the fact that a whole new group of people can use the elliptiGO glide bike as an alternative to their cars. The standing riding position has proven to be much more comfortable than the conventional bicycle riding position and, as a result, many people with back, shoulder, neck, pelvic and other injuries, including pain related to obesity or being overweight, who cannot ride a regular bike can ride the elliptiGO glide bike. Basically, we've found that anyone who can ride an indoor elliptical trainer can power the elliptiGO glide bike because it uses the same elliptical pedaling mechanism for propulsion.
