Fuck me, that was a Bit Special
Only the Cal Poly bike Atlas let the side down - transmission problems stopped them in both attempts. In chronological order:
Rob Hitchcock / Kyle Edge: 60.66 mph. He's gone faster, but he's a bit out of practice at the moment.
Ron Layman / Primal 2: 66.60 mph. First time over 65 for Ron.
Greg Westlake / Avos Arrow: 43.49 mph. Yet another world record!
Sam Whittingham / Varna Tempest: 82.82 mph. Yet another world record!
Yannick Lutz / Altair II: 73.07 mph. Personal best.
Eric Ware / Wedge: 71.07 mph. First time over 70 for Eric.
Barbara Buatois / Varna Diablo 3: 75.46 mph. Yet another world record,
outright European record, first woman over 75 mph, fourth fastest rider evvah after Sam, Matt Weaver and Fast Freddy Markham. $DEITY alone knows how she does it coz there's not much of her
