very funny videos!
I like your own testride with the flevo racer best, you're in upmost
concentration and the lttle kid in the background shouts out, "amai, dat
is een rare!"...
For those on the list who do not understand dutch, it is exclamation
that can have several meanings, not necesary flattering for either bike
or rider :o)

In Gent there is somebody with a python, this one:
http://dirkb.dnsalias.net/pythonmarc.html . So may be if you like you
can feel how the python is different from a flevo! His mail adres is (in
reverse) mf.liamtsafATetsmurnavcram

have fun building!
