Jet-Powered Bicycle = World’s-Coolest Bicycle


Jet-Powered Bicycle – Watch more free videos

Jet bikes: This is what the world’s engineers should be focusing on. I don’t care about building bridges that actually work or buildings that don’t fall over. The world needs a jet-powered bike in every garage. I have no idea how much fuel this needs, but it seems clear to me that if everyone was taking one of these bikes to work, we wouldn’t use as much gas (I’m not going to bother researching that last point and just assume it’s true.)

I wish this video would’ve stayed on the the bike a bit longer as it speeds up to 55 miles per hour, but we can’t always get everything we want (For example, I would like a jet-powered bike, but I do not have one.)

See pics and more info about it after the jump…

According to blog.wired.com

If skydiving doesn’t quite do it for you, you could always strap a jet engine to your chest. That’s what Bob Maddox did until discretion got the better of him and he decided a jet-powered bicycle might be a little safer.

“When you’re on a motorcycle going 50 mph, you don’t think anything about it,” he told us. “But on a bicycle, it feels way too fast.”

And loud. Way too loud.

“It’s loud like a top alcohol dragster loud,” he says. “It’ll pop your ear drums if you aren’t wearing protective gear. That’s a drawback to the engines.”

No kidding.
