I could make the distance in size between the front and rear wheels even more ridiculous

I added some more wheel offset and the steering is much better now

If i had an extra crank, I could slap the rest of this together and try pedaling it around. Alas, I do not. I have all the other parts, but no crank in my spare parts bin

It's got pedals and a chain and brakes, and I've ridden it around the block. It still needs some work, but i think that's enough for today

I was out riding my bike around and found an abandoned bike that can contribute some things to this crazy bike I'm building

Because of the way this is put together, I either need to chop out part of the so the chain has clearance to reach the rear wheel, or I need to add an idler pulley like in this quick photoshop mock up. I'm leaning towards idler pulley to keep the frame as strong as possible.

Instead of adding an idler pulley, what if we just add more pedals?

@MLE_online this is righteous.
Trying to imagine a rear brake; Maybe a fixed gear or a big jockey lever with an old boot on the end
