I don't think that the idea of modification when it comes to city bicycling is especially surprising. After all, people go about maintenance all the time because they know that these vehicles have to be cared for. Some people may want to utilize different wheels because they offer better handling, for example. However, there are just some additions which make me shake my head in wonder because of the sheer fact that such modifications were done in order to give the vehicle a more outrageous layer.
I think that anyone who knows anything about the Internet understands just how much press certain videos can attain. Do you remember when "Numa Numa" was the biggest craze and people couldn't get that song out of their heads? It seems like certain visuals are tough to get out of the mind, even if they come from the most popular videos featuring kittens and puppies. Regardless of what the subject matter may be, it seems like just about anything has the potential to attain a great number of views.
According to a written piece on Mashable, a French bicyclist by the name of Francois Gissy decided to place an interesting take on city bicycling. The way that this was done was through a rocket, which was attached to the bike in question. With the rocket being utilized, the vehicle managed to get up to top speed of 163 miles per hour. To say that this kind of act is astonishing would be an understatement, even for authorities on the matter like Linus Bike.
If I told you that this managed to break a world record, would you be at all stunned? It seems like this is the kind of speed that can only be achieved by motors, though creativity is something that deserves to be noted. It's very possible that this isn't going to have much use, though, apart from showing off the amount of speed that can be attained. However, I think that that the two videos I've seen are greatly entertaining, both of them attaining almost 10,000 views total.
I think that anyone, outside of entertainment, can tell you that this kind of action does not seem safe. People who aren't trained in this regard stand a great chance of hurting themselves because they don't understand the kind of power that rockets have. There has to be a great understanding of what's in store or else it's possible that mistakes will occur. Speaking just from the perspective of someone who likes entertainment, though, I think that it's tough to deny the appeal of fascinating showings.
