We’ve probably all played around with a shopping cart in the store’s parking lot – but Korean artist Jaebeom Jeong took it a step further: here’s Cartrider, a bicycle and shopping cart hybrid!

    Yes, my siblings and I did many dangerous stunts with stray shopping carts when we were children. Stores are really cracking down though, using wheel-lock mechanisms to stop cart theft. I wonder if people will 'hack' those mechanisms to make one of these for themselves.

    You know this would a really cool way to collect carts in a shopping parking lot. Just pedal one of these around and hook the loose carts behind. Making "Choo Choo" sounds are optional. ;)

    Mu,I agree. I bet bubble would love this! it would make his job a whole lot easier, lol. as for the rest of us, seems like my butt would get sore really fast and i'd be worried about banging my knees, lol.
