burning man bicycle camper

paul w. elkins is passionate about designing and building all kinds of wacky vehicles, including this bicycle
camper. the portable home was designed for use during the burning man festival in the US. for one week,
paul lived inside this tiny unit which he could move around by hoping on his bike. the home is suitable for
all weather conditions and weighs only 100 pounds. inside there is a folding bed, table, and lots of storage.
there is a tiny kitchen, ventilation system and a ‘washroom’ (we assume this is what the giant container
of kitty litter is for). there is also a tiny bubble window that adds some extra head room for sleeping under
the stars.
