There’s a new world record for downhill speed been set – beating the previous record by almost 10 Mp/h more, 27 year old Mischo Erban hit a phenomenal 130.08 Km/h (80.83 Mp/h). He and his crew found a two lane country road in Colorado (they wont disclose the location) to set the record. According to the article on ESPN Erban was, “aided by three visual spotters who used hand signals (not radios) to warn of a car driving uphill and thus alert Erban to stay in his lane on the twisting mountain course, which started at 8,000 feet and dropped 670 feet in a mile. Its average grade, 12.7 percent, was steeper than most Tour de France climbs.” The clip above will give you some idea of the speed. Crazy. More over here.
