You need Adobe Flash Player to watch videos on this site.

The Saint Thomas Academy from Mendota Heights, Minn., received a 2008 InvenTeam grant from the Lemelson-MIT Program to invent an electric motorcycle with compressible "crush zones" for urban commuter safety. The InvenTeam presented its invention at EurekaFest at MIT in June 2008.
