His Father and I were surprised when the Camarillo Acorn referred to him as "Camarillo Man"!!! He is our little boy and will always remain our little Joshua. Now he is celebrated as Camarillo's young inventor. His tenacity and ingenuity have landed him a few scholarships and other support to craft a dream he saw possible only a year ago.

Our son, Joshua Tulberg, is well known among the car enthusiast, art lovers, and the younger generation of Camarillo. His car is not only a means of transportation, but is a vehicle for fun. His metal sculptures can be seen in different parts of Camarillo. His most renowned art work sits on Mission Oaks Blvd, on the hills of Adolfo Camarillo High School.1985 Honda Interceptor

A year ago Joshua had a dream of building a Motoluge.  He purchased a 1985 Honda Interceptor which he rode for a few months.  During that time he designed and built a fuselage that would be capable of realizing his design goals.  Namely, a two-wheeled vehicle that would be as fast or faster than nearly all sports cars currently on the road.

 

Once the design and construction of the fuselage was complete, he fastened it to the rear half of the motorcycle and the Motoluge took shape.  He worked for weeks to complete and refine the final aspects of the design and in particular, the "landing gear" which stabilize the Motoluge at low speeds.

 The Motoluge was unveiled in dramatic fashion at the "Abandoned Runway" at Camarillo Airport on May 10, 2008.  This location allowed for a thorough exercise of all of the Motoluge capabilities while maintaining a high level of safety.  The unveiling and demonstration were a huge success and as his parents, we couldn't be prouder!!

Broker Bryant, It can go up to 125 MPH, but he has taken it up to 90 MPH. Joshua is very proud of his creation so he is trying to break it in slowly.
