thanks to a loud method of propulsion.

Cyclists already have no respect for traffic laws. Imagine if they could all afford hovercycles.

I’m waiting for the model that reaches ludicrous speed.

I note they do not mention range or flight time.

Probably 60 seconds. Fighting gravity with upward propulsion is not efficient .

10 Minutes. Limited by the size of the gas tank. It runs on diesel, bio-diesel or kerosine. Top speed is 124 but is speed limited to 64 in the US. Not a lot of altitude, so it kicks up a lot of rocks and dust. These things, and things like it, will be everywhere in twenty years.

These should take a heck of a toll on the “selfies” crowd.

10 times more exciting, 10 times more dangerous than a motorcycle. Needs it’s own Audoban speedway, one cleared of all pedestrians.
