pedicabs
Cyclist-powered carriages
Pedicabs are small passenger vehicles powered by a person pedaling—essentially bicycle rickshaws.
A driver pedals while passengers sit in an attached seat or carriage, typically behind or in front.
Common in tourist areas and urban centers as an alternative to taxis: We took a pedicab through Central Park.
Also called cycle rickshaws or bike taxis.
