I have had the pleasure of riding this bike and it propels itself in a most ingenious fashion. The bike is hinged in the middle. One of the rear wheels has a ratchet, all others are free spinning. When the lizard wiggles to one side, the ratcheted wheel moves forward, but as it wiggles the other way, the ratchet locks and the bike is propelled.
