Bicycle Powered Washing Machine

Written by – April 9, 2009

After reading about a bicycle powered washing machine and not owning a washing machine for the past 40 days (no I didn’t give it up for Lent) I want one.  I’m not sure how I came across the article but here it is.  The idea was to provide other areas of the world, where electricity is unreliable or unavailable, washing capabilities.

I think it’s a cool idea.  If you think about it, riding a couple miles to wash your clothes once a week can’t be that bad.  Most people drive to gyms just to work out so why not get a household chore done and your workout at the same time.  The only downside I can see is you would always be left with one set of dirty clothes (your washing outfit).  If anyone knows of one for sale, or plans on how to make one, I would be interested.  Just don’t tell Michelle:)
