Becak is famous 3 wheels transportation in indonesia. Its energy come from the muscle of the driver. The fuel is of course, rice and meats.

How much u should pay to ride becak ? i think, +/- $ 0.7 for 1 kilometer. You can traveling with becak with 1 other people, for example ur mom, dad, wife or sheep. Because, becak’ capacity is for 2 peoples. But for you that have big muscle, you can rent the becak and drive by yourself. Its really challenging and raise adrenalin. Especially if you take off the brake from the becak, and ride from higher road with a fast speed. You will feel the city wind and high adrenaline rush.

Every year when we celebrate independence day of the country, there are some competition that use becak as its participants. If you have a becak, of course you can join it. You can join becak decorating competition or becak race competition.

Again.. if you have big muscle, you can participate in becak lift competition. Becak with will be no more than 1 ton.

If you are highly professional mechanical engineering,  or a creative tinker from high windy mountain, you can design your own becak. I you dont like fuel your becak with your muscle’s energy, you can embed and transform your becak into electric becak. Becak is green transportation, so it will be good if we always use green energy for becak.

I often imaging, how our buffaloes and cows waste, can be green energy for becak.

If you curious about becak, come here. and ride it with the spirit of the wind. With brake of course.
