Yesterday, we reported on Graeme Obree’s latest tests on Beastie, the bike he hopes will help him surpass Sam Whittingham’s IHPVA world record of 82.8mph (133.3kph), and today we spot this video of a Frenchman going more than 50kph quicker – what’s more, he set that speed more than half a century ago.
