Since 1964, Ky “Rocketman” Michaelson has produced the strangest, wildest, and most outrageously powered vehicles on Earth, including drag racing machines, funny cars, custom choppers, and jet-powered go-karts.
Although he doesn’t drink alcohol, Michaelson has an appreciation for the value of beer. You should never drink and ride a motorcycle, but it’s perfectly reasonable to use beer as a fuel. The Rocketman’s latest motorcycle contains a 14-gallon beer keg. There’s a heating coil inside. When the coil boils the beer, the beer vapor squirts out the back, propelling the motorcycle forward. It’s like a modern version of Heron’s steam engine.
