Acme Rocket Company. Wylie T. Coyote line.

Seriuosly though,What the hell was the guy thinking with a moutain bike? doesn't he know you put your rocket on your TT bike, with a Zipp disc, and an 808 on the front.

I coulda' used that setup for a few final sprints in my racing days. No need for the shake and bake maneuver. No need to ride up front either. (chuckle)

Much more impressive is a bicyclist drafting a racing car at 150+ mph (which has been done).

This rocket bike guy should try jumping over the Grand Canyon with his bike (remember Evel Knievel?).
