Ky Michaelson aka ‘The Rocketman’ has the talent for engineering outstanding bikes in is blood. Literally, since his ancestors founded the Michaelson motorcycle company which excelled in challenging the limits of a motor-assisted bike for years. The extraordinary thing about Ky is that he’s dyslexic and had to learn to build things with his imagination rather than from written instructions. Which of course turned out to be a real boon since most of his creations have been nothing short of awe-inspiring. This Rocket Powered Trike is one of his more recent creations which he built with his four-year old son Buddy by his side to teach the little guy a thing or two about his old man’s craft. The trike features a real hybrid rocket motor and is powered by a fully operational 24″ 500 lb thrust, so we don’t think Buddy will be allowed to ride this very special trike anytime soon. But hey, it is absolutely stunning to look at and we’re just hoping it will inspire Ky jr. to build innovative rocket-powered vehicles when he grows up as well.
