On the go - £15 cardboard bike

Clipped to the Drawing Board by Bob Smith

HOW do you make bikes greener and stop them being stolen at the same time?
You make them out of cardboard for £15.
And that's exactly what student Phil Bridge is doing.
Phil, from Heaton Moor, has already made a working prototype of the recyclable cardboard bike, as part of his product design degree at Sheffield Hallam University . He hopes that with further work it could revolutionise the way we use bikes.
