This might be of interest to some of you. I’ve been working with Neil “Soupy” Campbell for a few years now on his quest to become the worlds fastest cyclist.
His aim is to break the long standing Absolute World Speed Record of 268.831km/h (167.044 mph) set by Fred Rompelberg in 1995. This is a motor paced record.
He’s already broken Guy Martin’s British record back in 2016 on an old tandem behind a VW Passat and next week aims to break the European record of 127mph.
The new bike is built by MOSS Bikes who also build bikes for the Redhook Crits.
You can follow his progress on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/operationpacemaker/) and Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/operationpacemaker/).
