Fantastic viewing. Hats off to Guy Martin and all the team. More bottle than a Coca Cola factory. Stunning bike build by Jason too. Love Rourke frames!
Thanks!
Just saw this. Amazing. In true geek style preferred to computer models and frame building bits to the actual attempt though... Thanks for the photos/infos Mr Rourke. Tell me, was that bit Guy welded actually on the final frame?
Would be astounded to see what speeds are achievable with the best rider, longer/flatter/harder surface and so on. Presumably just shaving all that hair would have got it up to 115!
Was only truck and sand slowing Guy down, Guy is very strong he could do much faster so could the bike ;)
Yes he did a little on BB's not whole welds tho, he's never tigged, was very good for first attempt.
A shame we don't have testing facilities like germany. I'm sure with enough persuasion we could get a straight road closed for a few hours.
Thanks!

Yes we did investigate Germany.
