How in the FUCK are these allowed on the roads? I saw one go by me with my own two eyes and it was the BIGGEST thing on a regular old road I've ever seen, hands down.

I like the aesthetic but I think that's a bit too much gore for me these days. Looks like fun ,though.

There's an alternate history book where one day in 1998 all electronic technology, combustion engines, firearms, and similar technology just stops working for no obvious reasons. Once things stabilize a little one of the factions of survivors equips all their longbow troops with bicycles so they can maneuver quickly where the roads are good, and load their gear on the bicycles to make it easier to transport if they have to go through rougher terrain. The whole book is basically "If the apocalypse happens you're going to want to be friends with medievalist nerds".
