The Bike Washing Machine

Talk about multitasking or the proverbial saying of "Killing Two Birds With One Stone". What am i talking about? Well, this innovation i must say is really breathtaking. What if i told you it's possible to get your laundry done while working out at the same time? It's a really cool stuff and this is made possible by B.W.M (Bike Washing Machine). 


The Bike Washing Machine is designed in China by developers at Dalian Nationalities University.

Various reports states that it looks like any other stationary bike on the market, except it has the drum of a washing machine as its wheel.

"When you ride this bike, the pedaling motion causes the drum of the washing machine to rotate," the designers explain. "At the same time, the extra electricity generated can be used to power the display screen or stored for future rides."

The designers, based at Dalian Nationalities University, do not say whether the bike will automatically fill and drain with water too.
Instead, the detergent and water may need to be added and then drained before more water being added for a rinse cycle.
They say, however, that the device could be a solution for those who want both a washing machine and an exercise bike but cannot find space for both.
Alternatively it could also help shave a few pounds off your electricity bill by using pedal power to do the laundry.

No more excuses to work up a sweat
