Holy Fast - Rocket Powered Bicycle - 207 MPH World Record


Holy crap do we have a bit of a surprise for you today! Just last week Francois Gissy set a world record on a bicycle going over 200 MPH!

On November 7th, on the famous "Circuit Paul Ricard" located at Le Castellet in South of France, François Gissy reached an incredible speed of 333 km/h on the rocket-propelled bicycle designed by his friend Arnold Neracher. More than 200 MPH on a skinny and completely stripped bicycle! Talk about an amazing, and crazy feat! Who would have believed that one day a daredevil on a bicycle with a rocket under the seat would travel the quarter mile in less than 7 seconds?!



Date Fastest Run Set: November 7th 2014

Peak speed: 207 MPH (333KMH) attained after just 820 feet (250 meters)

Design: Arnold Neracher
Rider: François Gissy
