From the BF website: "HPV champ and BF tikit co-designer Rob English actually rode the distance, drafting a staff vehicle at 35-40 mph on his experimental ultralight Friday for around 10 miles. He decided he was concerned something might break or fly off at that speed so broke off and arrived separately. Movie clip: Watch for the video of Rob by Ted Wade, to be posted on YouTube channel 'bikefriday'."

That Video is Right here:
