About: The Workshop Ethos
Lunarrocketbicycle was founded for riders who look at an early NACA wind-tunnel monograph or a vintage human-powered streamliner and immediately reach for vernier calipers, graph paper, and a spoke key.
Evidence Before Aesthetics, Safety Before Speed
Online video culture often rewards theatrical garage stunts—bolting loud engines or pyrotechnics onto cheap frames without brakes, gauges, or engineering calculation. Meanwhile, academic fluid dynamics papers remain locked behind jargon that rarely mentions whether a fairing still lets you shoulder-check at a roundabout.
Published by Lunar Rocket Bicycle Workshop Ltd in Cambridge, our journal occupies the middle ground honoured by groups like the British Human Power Club (BHPC) and the International Human Powered Vehicle Association (IHPVA): curious, open-notebook amateur engineering. Every article connects form to load path, separates theoretical propulsion studies from actionable build notes, and insists on static bench verification before a tyre touches the lane.
