    Well, I was going to say you'd need balls of steel to ride the thing. So
    what's the female equivalent?

    Good job speed limits don't apply to bicycles.

    Would make a nice automatic speed control radar shot on december 25th,
    with the pilot clothed like Santa Claus...

    Looks like a pulse jet engine on the back. I'm surprised he could sit
    on the thing..

    There's a Belgium who builds his own mini jet engines and strapped two
    to an Alleweder velomobile (enclosed recumbent trike). Only seen one
    picture, which has since dissapeared.

    Nothing new about that. I remember doing a similar experiment with the red
    bike with chunky tyres and panniers, supplied to me by WH Smith when I had a
    paper round in 1959, using a couple of 1/6d rockets as motive power (it was
    late October and one could buy such things).

    Singed the mudguards. Good job they weren't plastic.

    Must admit, the results were not as spectacular as the above link, although
    they were more colourful.
