What’s an EllipitGo?

It’s the world’s first elliptical bike, and – yes – it’s a bit goofy looking but it’s a darn good workout. 

Tom Karrels of Home Fitness Wisconsin dropped by with an EllipitGo the other day – one of our cold, spring days.  I jumped on it, and I gotta say that I really liked it.  The bike provided a sturdy, fun ride and was very easy to navigate. 

Need a great cross trainer this summer?  Check this thing out.  It’s not cheap at $2,499.  But, it will turn heads and get you shape.   

Finally, no matter what your thoughts are on the Elliptigo it’s not nearly as odd looking as this.
