Really?...53 miles an hour officer? That can't be right, it's just a bicycle...! *


granted it does have two wheels and the only motor is a guy pedaling it!

BUT....It DID just set a new world record distance for the hour!
EXCELLENT!!CONGRATULATIONS!!! Go Freddie, GO!

My hat's off to Mr. Markham & his team. As well to the rest of the participants and sponsors. ...



Did I see Nissan as a sponsor? Hmmm... Bill Ford, are you listening?

Big auto makers need to be sponsoring this kind of endeavor. It is all based on idividual human transportation over long paved distances,...right?

Sorry..I drifted. anyway! That's a GREAT picture of Freddie standing next to the bike, with his hands on hips and an incredulous grin, looking like..I can't BELIEeEEVE I got pulled over!!:rolleyes:

CHECK IT OUT! NOW! :D
