Oh sure! I can't even stay upright on a bicycle lately!!! I would be falling like crazy on that, though it does look kinda fun. Didja see the photo of one of 'em riding down stairs on it? Right!
But you do have to give them credit for showing it being used by riders wearing helmets!!

Huh?
Why treadmill when you can walk? Or run? Or - obviously - bike?
Does anybody seriously like treadmills that much? How bizarre.Winter riding is much less about badassery and much more about bundle-uppery. - malkin

I don't think even the inventors take this thing seriously. Did you hear them laughing in the video??

I do not even like treadmills. At least they showed him wearing a helmet.
