Fantastic vintage images of……. Rocket powered bikes. That’s right, not just one rocket powered bike – TWO. These come courtesy of Matt Townsend who spotted them on the Retronaut site. Whilst I have no idea whatsoever as to why you would want to turn the perfect machine (a bicycle) into a potential bomb, it has a wonderful steam-punk look to it.
