Things that are new!

Well, I haven't posted in a while because of my extremem busyness at college. Last monday I finally got out of my old dorm and my new roommates are great! I even found out that one of them lives very close to me so I took him home this weekend and got him some money working with me for my uncle (he pays me under the table to help him do stuff around his house).
That being said I am thinking about starting on a new toy/project, a chainsaw bike! \
Here are the details:
- 9 tooth sprocket stepped to a 48 tooth that is on the same central axis as another 9 tooth running another 48 at the pedal arm connection so that I can leave the bike gears alone and be able to have variable gears.
The theory:
- with this setup I should be able to turn the pedal axis 5.33 times per second at 4hp where a normal person could do almost 2 at 1.9hp.
seeing as a normal person can go 20 miles per hour this bike should be able to do about 60 mph but will most likely do less due to friction.
