I love bikes. Love 'em. And rockets, too. That's why this video, of a rocket-powered bike, caught my eye. Here are some stills:
Just before the test. Note the protective suit of the guy standing next to the bike - that's some serious explosives there.

The bike during testing:


Here's the pilot (I guess he'd have to be called a pilot) after the test. That scoreboard behind him was hooked up to a radar gun; the bike hit a top speed of 236 km/h (147mph). Wanna bet this guy clangs when he walks?
