Steve Roberts, the “high-tech nomad,” posted this awesome image to his Facebook page. He writes:
Thanks to Dan Burden for this image from the Deep Archives, taken during a 1988 photo session with him in Florida. I’m aboard the Winnebiko II, which used a hacked Radio Shack Model 100 in the console, along with a binary handlebar keyboard processed by a 68HC11. It also carried packet radio, operable while riding, a speech synthesizer, 20 watts of solar panels, 2-meter ham radio, and full touring gear. This was my favorite of the three bike versions.
I vividly remember the images of the Winnebikos and the BEHEMOTH, subscribing to Steve’s email newsletters, and learning A LOT about “gonzo engineering” from him.
