Then he could "whiz, whiz, whiz" on a "Super Whizzer" :-) With all the attention, maybe next year he will have a triple. Then he could “whiz, whiz, whiz” on a “Super Whizzer” :-)

The motorized bicycle area always seems like an answer to a question that was misspoken. Interesting mod, I would like to see how both of them are setup to react with each other.

The specific power output may be low, but bicycle brakes and suspensions are usually not designed for speed like that motor could dish out. At least this example appears to have springer forks; I hope they're functional. Most Whizzers are basically ultra-light flat trackers. Fun, I'll bet. Practical, not a chance. By the way, if this bike can run on a single engine then it actually has a much better chance of making it home without a breakdown. It's design for redundancy!
