Did you know that those Imperial AT-AT Walkers that assaulted the Rebel base on Hoth were pedal powered?
Well, they probably weren’t, actually, but if the Empire could have figured out how to implement it, I’m sure they would have. You know, Darth Sidius (the Emperor) and Darth Vader really were pretty forward thinking folks.
…not to mention the fact that being an intergalactic sheriff is hard work, and sometimes, requires taking a little break — it’s a good thing that riding a bike is a great way to recharge the proverbial batteries.
Maybe the Galactic Empire should have consulted these folks at Portland’s Pedalpalooza to figure out how to combine pedal power with siege weapons.
