The Austrians Pronounce It "Crossbow"



"Design is not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works."
Steve Jobs

If Darth Vader had a car, it would look like this. The Austrian manufactured KTM X Bow (pronounced "crossbow") has a menacing appearance. It is the first car produced by the motorbike maker KTM. The X Bow was developed in partnership with Kiska Design, Audi (who provided the turbocharged direct injected TFSI engine), and Dallara. The Sith is very, very pleased.





At a stand still from any angle or while in motion the KTM X Bow is a magnificent piece of engineering and design. The Dark Side DOES have a bright spot.



...I should have known Darth Vader was Austrian.

I Like To Sweat (... and this is how I do it).


"Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body."
Sir Richard Steele

...So I guess in writing this article, I'm killing two birds with one stone. The Kinesis, which is produced in Cesena, Italy, by Technogym, is truly an experience in and of itself. The Kinesis isn't simply just another piece of cardiovascular training equipment. It is the harmonious marriage of form and function. In a world where both Kia and Maserati will both get you from the Hamptons to the Meat Packing District, the Maserati would undoubtedly be the more magical experience and of the two, the Kinesis most certainly wouldn't be the Kia.





Technogym sponsored the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing and will sponsor the 2012 Olympics in London (IT'S THE WORKOUT OF CHAMPIONS!). The Kinesis can even help you gain your own personal gold medal (I got mine!).





There's no better way to break a sweat. Wellness...
