EccentricsWe all know someone who's a little bit strange - Mum's UFO abduction secret, or the mad Uncle who isn't allowed within 400 yards of Noel Edmonds.
Tell us about your family eccentrics, or just those you've met but don't think you're related to.

(wince)There's no shortage of gas turbine bikes, but a steam turbine/electric ?
It's a dream, and it's a good dream. But I don't think it's going to be either lighter or more efficient.
You've got two power systems, fuel , high pressure gas and short term power storage to take care of. Plus voltage regulation (not small or light when dealing with many amps) and mechanical power transfer to take care of.
I think you may end up with a honda goldwing sized bike with all the panniers stuffed full of plumbing.
(smile)
And of course, I know everything, me...
