Take the good old pedal boat — a simple vehicle powered by human motion, a clear offshoot of the trusty bicycle. What if one could create an amphibious human-powered vehicle that could move from land to water with the ease of a snake? That was the inspiration behind the radically innovative Di-Cycle Concept by GBO design, this half bicycle and half pedal boat looks as fun as it sounds.
The Di-Cycle is particularly well suited for the Netherlands, where there is an ardent biking culture and plenty of water. Therefore it comes as no surprise that this is where the Di-Cycle was developed. GBO design wanted to create a fun and active vehicle that could explore the city using both roads and the multiple canals in the city of Helmond. The Di-Cycle looks like an enjoyable way to get around any aquatic city, and for this creative design, GBO won the Brabantse Spelen design competition in 2005.
