A British gas and electric company developed a bike with a built-in hybrid-power refrigerator to demonstrate their commitment to green energy.

Combining energy from the sun, wind and the cyclist’s legwork, the bike can power an onboard refrigerator that will dispense ice-cold bottles of water for the rider alongside other energy saving devices.

Can a Bakfiets hack be far off? Pedaling extra hard to power a generator that keeps your beer cold just makes it taste better anyway.
