Oh, human ingenuity, is there no end to your cleverness?

Tanya Paz sent me one of those attachments with pics of “Clever Inventions” – specifically those related to active transportation.

Like the “bike racks that won’t actually take up the entire sidewalk.”

iNVENT 4

.

And the “stairs with built in slides for quick descents.”

iNVENT 5

.

And “benches that you could rotate to always have a dry seat.”

iNVENT 7

.

But since the other designs are not on a linkable site, I can’t share them.  However, there are lots of sites that are, like this one: 34 Cleverly Designed Inventions

With ideas that range from the sublime:

Invent 1

.

To the ridiculous:

Invent 2

.

All 34 here.
