his/her left and right hand respectively

The Science of Human Balance
Human balance is detected in the inner ear. There are three
semi-circular canals positioned at right angles to each other that
detect balance in three axes. These canals are separate and distinct.
The three types of balance are Left to Right, Front to Back and
Rotational (Yaw).
Left to Right balance is what people are most familiar with and is the
primary balance used for riding a regular bicycle or indeed flying a
plane. In the case of flying a plane there is a visual supplement to
left to right balance provided by the observation of the horizon line.
Front to Back balance has very little visual input and is the primary
balance used in riding a surfboard, windsurfer and snowboard. Front to
Back balance is a finer instrument than Left to Right balance and
offers a greater degree of artistic feedback. This is evidenced by the
difference between skiing and snowboarding. Skiing (Left to Right
balance) is faster than Snowboarding (Front to Back balance); however
people like to snowboard because of the greater artistic expression.

A New Bicycle
Introducing a new bicycle invention by myself, Michael Killian. This
bicycle is ridden sideways and is balanced by using human Front to Back
balance. This bicycle uses Front and Rear steering (impossible on
bicycles using Left to Right balance).

The Future of this Invention
It is difficult to predict the commercial success of any invention
(e.g. Segway Ginger invention).
However, it is worthwhile and newsworthy to spread the word of a
legitimate invention.
My feeling is that this new bicycle invention will appeal to people
seeking more artistic expression in a bicycle and the first commercial
product will probably be positioned for children about 12 to 14 years
old with an adult version following later.

Crazy! Doesn't look like it would be rideable, but evidently it is. Can
anyone get on and start riding, or does it require a lot of relearning?

Try to get on the Letterman show.

Hey, at least the guy in the pictures is wearing a helmet. Now, when he
falls flat on his back (whick looks like it could easily be done on
that contraption), he won't splatter his head all over the pavement
like a ripe watermelon LOL
