New world record!. Gravity assisted for Sure. How bout 212.139 KMH downhill on a bicycle!. Frenchman Christian Taillefer is definetely nuts!. He spent one & a half years preparing for his icy slope record attempt in the French Alps using a Puegeot bike costing around $500.000. The bike & him in a special suit & helmet were wind tunnel tested to a simulated 200 kmh beforehand. Is that Icicle with a "B" !!??? Kiwi Brian |
