I think this would be a blast!... Airboard Personal Hovercraft...
This looks like it would be a blast to ride and drive. The Airboard Personal Hovercraft built in Liverpool, England has a top speed of 20mph and no brakes, you shift your weight around to steer and stop, more thrills and spills. It boast a 5 liter engine that will allow an hour of ride time.
You can find more info at www.airboardeurope.com, check it out for yourself.
Maybe this won't solve the fuel crisis but at least we can still have some fun!

TRULY AMAZING... I HAD TO SHARE IT WITH YOU... Dean Kamen at the TED Convention...
CHECK OUT THE LINK BELOW TO SEE DEAN DISCUSS THIS MOST REMARKABLE INVENTION...

Speakers Dean Kamen: Inventor
Dean Kamen landed in the limelight with the Segway, but he has been innovating since high school, with more than 150 patents under his belt. Recent projects include portable energy and water purification for the developing world, and a prosthetic arm for maimed soldiers.
Why you should listen to him:
Dean Kamen is an innovator, but not just of things. He hopes to revolutionize attitudes, quality of life, awareness. While an undergraduate, he developed the first portable infusion device, which delivers drug treatments that once required round-the-clock hospital care. And, through his DEKA Research and Development, which he cofounded in 1982, he developed a portable dialysis machine, a vascular stent, and the iBOT -- a motorized wheelchair that climbs stairs (Stephen Colbert took one for a spin).
Yes, he's a college dropout, but he's a huge believer in education, and in 1989 established the nonprofit FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) to inspire teenagers to pursue careers in science. FIRST sponsors lively annual competitions, where students form teams to create the best robot.
His focus now is on off-grid electricity and water purification for developing countries; another recent project, previewed at TED2007, is a prosthetic arm for maimed soldiers (read an update here). He's also working on a power source for the wonderful Think car. And, with more funding in the works, we haven't seen the last of the Segway.
