Sounds crazy but workable. I'd suggest a Hydrogen Peroxide rocket (reliable ignition) and a fold out wing like a hang glider unfolded by spring release. The size of the wing depends on what you are looking to do. I'd assume just to extend your air time you could get by with 4' long wings. The combination could turn a 5' jump into a 30' jump, but I'm just guessing and this assumes that you can keep it going straight.
As for sustained flight, I think the problem is aerodynamics in that the bike is so short, you'd need a big tail fin for stability. |

Absolutely insane. I like it. Just make sure the jet doesn't give mid jump; even the wings wouldn't save you. |

Something like a Power Ranger bike then? (see link) |

Exactly like that motorcycle hang gliding! I love it. Did you see how far he went. |

(+) for Darwinistic potential. |

True flight isn't really necessary. Just being able to glide would be cool too--imagine riding across the desert, making thousand-foot jumps over the sand dunes... |

Idea is already done on the movie "Think Tank". People should check it out, its very HB. |

You are truly a visionary! |

Ok, instead of wings, while driving normally, fire up the jets and deploy a parachute from the rear storage compartment and fly away! |
