You got big house in Edinburgh?

:shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

Good grief - even I couldn't live in a space that mad!!! I mean, I get the pink front door, but inside?? WTAF :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:
The wallpaper in the staircase and that carpet :o No way it would be that clean if i lived in that house. I think i would throw up before i reached the 2nd floor << My name is Luka :lol: I would like a wee nose about the house though as i bet its full of interesting stuff with lots of stories. She is also a tad nuts.

No, if it was me it'd be on the back wheel. Hyperloon me! 8-)

They should put gyroscopes in more stuff.

I'm sure it's been mentioned before but the your two motor-sikkle wheels spinning rapidly act like gyroscopes and kid us all into believing we are much better balancing than we really are .

There's more to it than that, I thought it was mainly caster effect but that's still only part of it.

At school in our physics class out teacher gave us a bicycle wheel to old and turn it through a sideways 180arc, iyswim, then he span it and we then had to try and turn it again and so demonstrated the gyroscopic effect!

Pretty sure you could make a perpetual motion machine with enough magnets and gyroscopes. Maybe throw in a newton's cradle just to be sure.
