This is outrageously cool. There's even a video, which shows this contraption in action. It's toward the end, but you won't want to fast-forward through all the crazy bikes that appear beforehand.
Erin McKean pointed this out (@FakeErinMckean); it's on the Modern Mechanix blog and comes from a 1939 issue of Popular Science magazine.
