Ice-Flø Concept, v1

First Concept Art by Lance and Jan
This is the original sketch by Lance & Jan done in March. The towing vehicle will now be Joe’s van instead of the landspeeder. The land speeder will now be a separate lounge that will look very similar to what you see here. A giant iceberg/cave will be on the trailer and will house a live stage and DJ booth.

BergCycle Concept Art, v1

BergCycle v1The fun Burning Bikes tribe has some great replies already!

The BergCycle has to be:
• simple to implement
• cheap to build
• solid enough to last a week (no MOOP droppings of bits!)
• must be lit up for night riding visibility
• lightweight and not to clunky or dangerous to ride
• and, of course, look icebergy and fun!

My first visualization glance would be a sort of hoop skirt for the bike.

The structure can’t be tall though it would be funny if it was built up to a pinnacle where a hole for just a head sticking out (maybe with a polar bear hat or seal head on the rider!).

The BergCycle can stick out somewhat length ways rather than be very wide for riding safety in crowds. There’d have to be an door on at least one side in order to get in and out. Or, if it was a low iceberg design (not up to torso or the head), it could simply dip lower in the mid section so a person could step over the sculpture and inside where the bike is.

Little penguins ridin’ along would be über-cute!

    ART CAR
    UPDATES

    The DJ Booth/Bar, electrical wiring and benches to be finished this week. Inner parachute gets hung after that, followed by ice cave decorations.

    Anybody interested in building a mini berg or two to drift along the playa with the Ice Flø? It was part of our original vision but a couple of our peeps dropped out. We've got extra material you can use. Consider converting a bicycle into a mini-berg or a kiddie trailer. Anything on wheels really. It will look amazing to have other icebergs flowing with us!

     

    THANKS, NICK!

    A SPECIAL THANKS to Nick Vankrijdt for donating approximately $1000 in materials to our effort! We love you Nick!
