   - Bicycle, motorcycle, mono-cycle and unicycle modeling
   - Robotic and autonomous control of single track vehicles
   - Handling qualities
   - Vehicle and rider system identification
   - Education through bicycle dynamics
   - Controller design: optimal, fuzzy, classical, etc.
   - Steady turning
   - Tire modeling and experimentation
   - Rider biomechanics

**

You are invited to submit an abstract extended summary by *March 4th to
jkm...@ucdavis.edu.* This submission should:
