Steam Cycle

Fall weather is the best time of year to me to draw some Steam Punk

Another vehicle from the world of Steam Pony

When you can't travel by rail, you still travel by steam.

The Steam Cycle runs on a high compression boiler powering two cylinder pistons. 75 percent of the vehicle is contained within the two wheels on each side of the vehicle. Their large size keeps the engine balanced without needing a third wheel to support the front half of the boiler.

Caution must be taken when starting up the Steam Cycle though. If you engage the drive to quickly you can throw off the balance of the cycle and ram the front end of the boiler into the ground and flip the cycle over.
