In the last several years, we have seen a huge growth in the pedal power community. In the early 1980's we used to run our ads in Popular Science and human power was very much considered a fringe idea.  Today, it's everywhere and it's wonderful.  We are constantly amazed and inspired with what people have designed!  For the very best resource available, covering many, many aspects of human power - from plans, resources, etc the book The Human Powered Home by Tamara Dean is a must have.  You can connect with Tamara through her website www.thehumanpoweredhome.com
