Abstract: This invention concerns enhancing human powered locomotion by converting the forces exerted across the pelvis into wheeled propulsion. The invention may be practiced by a two-wheeled vehicle having: rigid rails secured to a front steering assembly and to a rear trestle anchor with flexible attachment to a pelvic harness; a linear transmission component consisting of two foot-attaching runners that glide along the rails and are attached to a linear power transmission apparatus; and a rotary transmission component operably connected to the linear transmission component and to a rear wheel. The rotary transmission component can be a mechanical apparatus driven by linear motion of the runners or an electrical apparatus powered by electrical current generated from motion of the runners. Hybrid Electro-Mechanical embodiments of the transmission components are also contemplated. The vehicle is operated by a rider simulating walking or running motion.
