yeah, i think I've seen it on one of those 'extreme sports shows'. It was behind a 'dragster' looking thing on some salt flat somewhere. They towed him to about 120mph, (cos you can't turn the crank at much less than that!) & then he drafts the thing. One time he 'popped' out from the draft & came a total 'cropper',

cheers,

The scary part is that even going 100 mph on a motorcycle is kind of scary.....let alone a skinny tired bicycle at 152mph!!!!!

Mic Doohan made coming off at 150 look easy. The bicyle crash footage on the salt flats is somethin else.
