Brian G over at nyvelocity.com got his hands on a MADSEN, took his 4th grader Jimmy out with it and filed a report, including video!

This bike would be a great addition to the garage of someone who lives within riding distance of a local downtown area. In the morning he or she could take the children, it can hold as many as four, to school and then stock up on groceries and run errands. If used enough, the money saved on gas would eventually even out the price tag, plus the environmental impact of one less car being driven less than five miles at a clip is worth noting.
