Let’s go flyke a kite
•• Published: Nov 9, 2012
With the pending approach of 2013 a mere eight weeks away or so. Wexford is looking towards ‘the Gathering’ . While catching up on what’s happening in and around the county over 2013 I came across the Hooked Kitefest now that’s all very well for the Duncannon Beach, New Ross, Duncannon, Co.

Velavis is a flyke—a relatively new mobility concept that is a cross between a recumbent bicycle and a motorized paraglider. It combines the advantages of each of these forms of transport, thus offering the pilot a new dimension in mobility and independence.
For the first time in the history of aviation, the Velavis flyke, which falls into the category of ultra-light aircraft, allows ambitious hobby pilots to move through the air and on the ground with one and the same vehicle and thus remain mobile after landing. Runs on electricity
Flyke” in action – it’s a flying bike that can be pedalled (or propeller powered) on the ground, and flown in the air. The author of this video flew from Land’s End to John O’Groats, UK in the summer of 2009 (www.flybike.co.uk), landing in random fields every couple of hours, cycling to petrol stations to refuel and then taking off again from nearby fields. Landing about 30 times altogether during the trip, and raised £17000 for charity.
