looks like they've stuck a rear tyre on the front which is useless for beach racing (if their beach racing is in an oval like mablethorpe?). seen many people try it at mablethorpe and it never works cos you can't get it turned in sharp enough without the front washing out
ReplyDeleteBrutal. 220 clicks on sand? I think I'll leave that for the pros.
ReplyDeleteThe bike reminds me of the final motorcycle chase scene in Mission impossible II where they use Triumph Speed Triples shod with knobbly tires (mixed in with some scenes where they use road tires...).
/D
