Looks like 90 km/h, avg in the heavy stuff? (55 mph) The revs were up high but I figure in japan they go kilos right?

Seemed like the only thing that slowed him/her down was the other cyclists!

Glad I live in the good ol' US! US countryside that is!

Good Video!

From the Rev Counter it looks like he did the whole trip in first gear.

I still don't think he is fast enough to be a dispatch rider in London.

A bit of a rush, reminding me of past riding on SoCal freeways although a little more elbow room available. Those were also the days when nobody was waiting for me at home. What's remarkable is that no one took his riding personally and purposely cut him off or squeezed him- a trait of some drivers and, hmmmm, some bike riders.

The guys obviously got talent and no brain.

He's just a quarter turn of a steering wheel away from certain death !
Crazy but strangely entertaining.

He doesn't appear to be that talented. He isn't particularly quick, nor is he especially safe in his technique. More pizza boy than dizzy

The guy is crazy. The San Francisco Bay area has plenty of riders like that too. Not my cup of tea...but have to admit, saves time if you want to get to the grave sooner!
