    Bet you love blackbird

    It is powered by wind to go 4 times the speed of wind, downwind.

    There are also 2 veritasium and many other vids on it that try to explain how its possible.

      The blackbird works because the turbine is so big, and the rest of the vehicle is very aerodynamic. Unlike that thing in the OP…

          Looks like a 100W panel, which couldn’t generate enough power to propel a light-weight bicycle, let alone a moped with a battery. It might be enough to offset the weight and drag it adds, but that’s only when it’s in direct sunlight.
