Steam is still King.

Here's something interesting I came across today. This chap hand makes these replica Roper Steam Cycles down in Cambridge.
From our discussion there was only one Roper originally made in 1896. On the race track it averaged 60mph, pretty quick with a boiler between your legs and plunger on the tire for brakes.







If anyone would like more info on this or would like to purchase one feel free to drop me a line.
