Ever since I’ve seen the chukudu, I was intrigued by it. It is indeed “unglaublich was da drauf passt” (or “incredible what fits on it”). I’m even the proud owner of a chukudu and I got some driving lessons back in 2011. And Einstein is right: “Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance you must keep moving.”
