LE CASTALLET, France (UPI)
A Swiss daredevil strapped rockets to his bicycle and reached a record speed of 207 mph in less than five seconds in France.
Francois Gissy, who reached 177 mph on his
rocket bike in November, broke his own record at the Paul Ricard racetrack in
Le Castallet by hitting a speed of
207 mph in 4.8 seconds.
The bicycle was designed by Gissy's friend,
Arnold Neracher of Exotic Thermo Engineering. It is powered by a hydrogen
peroxide propulsion unit.
One of the runs featured in a video posted to
YouTube shows Gissy and
his rocket-powered bicycle defeating a Ferrari in a drag race.
"If we can find some serious sponsors, then we would like to build a monstrous bicycle, which will be called 'Spine Crusher,'"
Gissy told Gizmag.
"The goal would be to accelerate to more than [249 mph] in less than two seconds. I just cross my fingers that we will have the green light soon in order to start the construction. But it doesn't depend on me."
