What's the chance of Ade Worman giving this a go?

So it's a small jet/rocket on a bicycle.It'll go as fast as the rocket less the drag of bike and rider,assuming it stays on the ground in a straight line. Unimpressed, I was hoping Guy Martin had managed to pedal a bike to that speed

Some thoughts on watching that video:

1. Why don't we get a good look at the bike?
2. He must be mental.
3. What a beautiful circuit that Paul Ricard is.
4. What is going on with his hair?
5. What kind of cycle tire can stay together at those speeds?
6. That is the worst haircut I think I've ever seen.

Great vid Pete!

Must be something to do with being French, Eric Teboul rides something similar, I thought he'd been faster than that ?
