223kph down a hill, on a bike. #NOPE

His original attempt did not end as nicely.  

 

 

Frame snapped where the headtube and downtube attach.  This was back in 2004.  Good to see him go for it again after all these years. 

 

 

 

I have experience with bike riding (Tour Divide 2011, CX racing, Triathlon racing, XCO MTB racing, etc).  Going fast is a wonderful thing.  

 

But when I hit 60 mph down a hill on 23mm wide tires, I do tend to think "Man, I could die so fast right now."
