An amphibious float system removably and nondestructively attached to a bicycle, having floats that raise and lower simultaneously on pivoting arms that swing longitudinally in a fore and aft arc and lock in place in a desired position by hand manipulable connections for transition between land and water travel without modification of the bicycle. The bicycle remains fully assembled and the lift arms provide ample clearance above land and water to keep the bicycle and rider fully out of the water for dry feet operation. The system carries everything with it to convert between multiple modes of operation, including as an amphibious bicycle, an amphibious water cycle, a conventional bicycle, and a pontoon boat. A self-engaging drive system and removably attached rudder aid in changeovers for repeated land and water evolutions, and both kick-up when encountering land or underwater obstructions.
