Hawkwind guitarist Dave Brock wrote the music to this track, and their frontman Bob Calvert composed the lyric. According to Mojo magazine September 2011, Calvert's lyric was inspired by an Alfred Jarry short story called How To Construct A Time Machine. However, rather than writing about a "cosmic space travel machine" he made it about his new silver racing bike.
