Like many of us, Alex Gadsden never had enough time. He ran a business and a home and needed to lose weight. So he decided to do something about it. He invented the cycle washer. e 29-year-old now starts each day with a 45-minute cycle ride. He not only feels healthier, but he saves on his energy bills and does the washing too. He said, “It gives the user a good workout. I’ve only used it for two weeks, but I’ve already noticed a dierence.” “I tend to get up at around six-thirty now and get straight on the cycle washer. I keep it in the garden, so it’s nice to get out in the fresh air. A erwards, I feel full of energy. en I generally have breakfast and a shower, and I really feel ready to start the day.” e green washing machine uses 25 litres of water a wash, and takes enough clothes to ll a carrier bag. He normally cycles for 25 minutes to wash the clothes, and then for another 20 minutes to dry them. And it doesn’t use any electricity, of course. Mr Gadsden, the boss of a cleaning company, believes his machine could become very popular. With an invention which cleans your clothes, keeps you t and reduces your electricity bill, he may well be right. e cycle washer KWWS ZZZ IDYRXULWHPHPRULHV FRP The moon landing was a (1) truly (2) historic moment.
