I know, right? My dad, a retired mech engineer, was going to fabricate one of these a few years back, I remember him saying he could mass produce for less than $300… I sent him that link.
It’s insane.

I gotta say, the Street Strider actually looks like fun, but I would be worried about braking suddenly… especially if I was, um, a plus-sized, previously non-athletic Biggest Loser contestant (which I could have been, pre-CrossFit).

Oh, Mark, you conveniently left out that Samberg is also a big consumer of street vendor hot dogs. Maybe only on his 20 per cent?

I thought it looked fun too. I like pretty much anything that can get me to play outside more.

For anyone looking for a great mayo check out wildernessfamilynaturals.com they make one that is GMO free/soy free using olive oil,sesame oil and coconut oil (all organic). I picked mine up at a local independent health food store. Tastes great. It does have some organic cane juice in it but it’s still only 1g carb/tablespoon.

Olive oil is way too flavorful for mayo, I’ve tried it before (without the bacon grease, though.) But “light” olive oil – which is from pressings after the first and is usually pretty flavourless – might work. Then again, I’ve never used light olive oil before, so who knows.

I’ve thought about using coconut oil (or refined palm oil) for mayo given its mild flavor, but it’d probably get really hard in the fridge and I don’t think I have the appetite to eat it all at once. Then again, baconnaise and duckonnaise might just be delicious enough to gorge on…

The thought of beef mayonnaise is making my mouth water–but not in a good way. Coconut Milk Chicken Mole sounds much, much better.

Thanks for the tip Dave, I really wanted to watch that special! I hope it’s on at the same time in my area.

Haha, and to think people might actually pay more for a moving stationary bike than a…normal bike? Wait a minute! It’s a trick!

$2,000 for that contraption? Well I guess you have to charge more to make up for the promotional fee you have to pay to the producers of The Biggest Loser.

“EVERYTHING that Jillian or Bob says IS JUST THE MOST SURPRISING THING EVER. ”

I totally agree! It’s like, “Wow!!!I never thought to use a Ziploc brand bag to portion out snacks for the next couple days!!!!”
