Au contraire, Mon frere 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Howard_(cyclist)
John Howard from the United States set a land speed record of 152.2 miles per hour (245 km/h) while motor-pacing on July 20, 1985 on Utah's Bonneville Salt Flats. This record was beaten in 1995 by Fred Rompelberg.

That's the reason for the "?" at the end, Chas.!
And I am not sure the "tow car" could have gone that fast! |

Well, it WAS the fastest bike at the time. I thought somebody had photoshopped the picture when looking at the little thumbnail. CRAZY!
Got to ride with John Howard last year at our local Cino ride. Great guy.
