davem Posted April 10, 2015 Share To be a mountain bike, shouldn't it also be able to go up the hills. It many sports, speed records have to be set in both directions. Still very cool though.

davem Posted April 10, 2015 Share From Wikipedia: Near the surface of the Earth, an object in free fall in a vacuum will accelerate at approximately 9.8 m/s², independent of its mass. With air resistance acting on an object that has been dropped, the object will eventually reach a terminal velocity, which is around 56 m/s (200 km/hor 120 mph) for a human body. He did not pedal once. So without an external force applied other than gravity, he exceeded terminal velocity based on his aero suit. Pretty gnarly.

BLACKvoodoo Posted April 10, 2015 Share Maybe a tailwind , considering I doubt they would have done it with a side or head wind. Thats my guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ampandy Posted April 10, 2015 Share In my competitive sport I had to back up my records in the opposite direction within 15 Min in order to claim a standing 23 year old S. A. speed record. What is the ruling regarding this event and record? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
