While walking down the street today with my aunt I saw a mother pushing her baby in a stroller. The baby was sleeping and looked so peaceful. The mother looked very happy too. "That looks so comfortable", I said to my aunt, who didn't appreciate the comment because I was interrupting her. I continued, "I wish I could still ride around in a stroller."
I'm not a big fan of walking, never have been, but I do like being outside and find the motion of riding in buses, and probably strollers very relaxing.
"I'm going to build an Adult Stroller!" I proclaimed.
We discussed a few potential names, none of which were that great.
Yes, it would be embarrassing to push a beautiful, able bodied, full grown man around in a stroller. The stroller must have a seeing eye dogs to pull it! The seeing eye dogs will be trained to follow the vocal commands from a gps system. "Turn left 100 meters"
Yes, it would be embarrassing to ride in a stroller as a beautiful, able bodied, full grown man, who is really just amazing at sports. The stroller will have a veil! And will emit baby noises!
Yes, I don't know how to build things. Someone else will do it for me!
But to reclaim that beautiful relationship between propulsion and dead weight, the comfort of slowly rolling down a sidewalk, the wind in your hair. It all seems very worthwhile to me.
Don't worry. I did a quick google search for "Adult Strollers" and they do exist, but they are expensive, and designed primarily for the handicapped and elderly. My stroller will be catered to the discerning gentleman who could walk if he wanted to, but rrrrreallllly doesn't want to. It will have a magazine rack, radio, back massage, mini-fridge and an hvac system if possible.
Rarely do I have ideas that are both funny and appealing at the same time. Its usually one or the other.
"The Adult Stroller" --seeing eye dogs and eye dog harness sold separately.
