@neiltyson@LanternScottJ You can ride on sand dunes if you have fat tires. See 1:45 in this video.http://youtu.be/Pf0Q71JtoW8 -
@dedwarmo@neiltyson@LanternScottJ@YouTube bb8 isn't the shape of a flat tire.....you're completely off subject. -
@Assailant85 Yes I am. I like it that way. And you can ride certain bicycles on certain sandy surfaces.
