How about "pedal cars" or "pedal boats"?
The cars would save gas and get you in shape.
The boats would be powered by whoever is on board, resulting the same results.

I'm sure that there could be a way of gearing a pedal car for interstate road speeds (not highway).

=========================================
it would have to either charge a battery
or pump compressed air into a on board tank
like what Slipknot was talking about once
about compressed air cars of the future.

Nothi'n better than watchign people launch their $80,000 boats rigged to the gills with fishing gear and zooming by me as I snag pogies and catch stripers a 100yds from the boat ramp (in my kayak).

Dont get me wrong if I coudl afford the boat, maintenance, fuel, insurance, registration, I would be all over it.
