Shadow passed along this YouTube video of a rocket powered bicycle, which was cool in the "wow, that guy's nuts!" sort of way, so I did some digging. Apparently it's the Genovois Alec Benet on a bike built by Exotic Thermo Engineering, with a top speed of 242.61KPH (150.75MPH). With upright bars.
Exotic Thermo Engineering has a host of silly Hydrogen Peroxide powered applications.

Upright bars and no spandex! Just imagine how fast he would have gone if he shaved!
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
