DMN Blog: Lookout for Ware riding his bike in San Antonio

[Four]

Thanks for the link. I more meant the customized 94 bike.

watch the video, really good shot of it.

Looks pretty slick.

Is it just me or do you guys just love everything Ware does and is about?

Transportation that will help him get in shape and emits no greenhouse gasses?

For the win.

Where did the electricity come from that charges the bike?

Unless it is solely generated by his pedaling, there's pollution somewhere.

Check the link out then. (Ware is in the vid)

Oh snap...sweet.

If you think 7k is pricey. Look at the bikes the guys who ride professionally ride. Like in the Tour De France. They start at 10K and go to 20K.

No electric motors either. Heck, they don't even come with pedals. Those are seperate.

Maybe the Optibike has been Armstrong's secret the whole time. :shades:

OMG Id buy a motorcycle for that price before I spend that kinda money on a bike, sheesh one of them is 13k, the creator must think everyone is rich.

If you're in San Antonio for training camp over the next few weeks, look for DeMarcus Ware and his custom-made Optibike.

Ware has one of the three Optibikes in Texas and he is expected to use the bike for his commute from the team's hotel to the Alamodome. Unlike in California when the players could roll out of bed and go to practice, they have to get on a bus - or drive their own car - to get to the Alamodome. Instead of being beholden to the bus schedule, Ware will have this bike.

OK, what is an Optibike? It's an electric bike. While it can be used as a traditional bike, a rider can flip a switch and the bike takes over, traveling up to 30 mph. It costs $7,000.

In an Optibike video, Ware said the bike has helped his conditioning in the off-season. And Ware's bike is complete with his number and Cowboys' colors.

I just hope he uses the traditional option more than the motorized one since I would hate for him to get hurt on that thing. Looks like it could be an excuse not to get padded up because its a "bicycle" even though it can get up to 30mph. I am sure he will be fine... but just saying be careful big guy!

hope he doesn't wreck.

Now all Eagles, Commander and Giant fans will descend on San Antonio with their bumper car driving skills to improve their teams' offensive stats.

Seriously, that thing looks like its hauling in the video, all he needs is some dude backing out of a parking spot not paying attention. It does look cool though.

He's the ultimate star.

How could anyone not like this guy? Great ambassador for the game, infectious smile.
