I've never seen a machine like that, it should be rigged with a generator to run LED lights, or a laptop. Or charge your cell phone.
Rick has a bar with a cord wrapped around it with a weight at the other end of the cord. He turns it to raise the weight and then reverses it to lower it.
It builds up a lot of the arms muscles, he learned that trick when he was doing hill climbs with motorcycles, they need strong arms to control the bike.
I hate to point out the obvious error in calling this a "bicycle", hand or otherwise. But I did anyway.
Didn't know such a contraption existed. Impressive.
This is an excellent machine. I worked out in a gym when i was in the Navy that had two of these. After my daily work out I would get on this machine and pedal. At first I wore out pretty fast, but after a few weeks of using it daily, I could go quite a while, but I also noticed my entire upper body strength was increasing greatly and from my trunk up, I was getting solid. Since then I could never find one of these machines again. I want to get one to use after every workout!
