Speed with Guy Martin.
Good bit of tv,for those who don't know Guy is a top class "proper" motorcycle racer/full time HGV fitter/Fred Dibnah aficionado. Trying to break rather unconventional speed records.

All you Mountain Bikers out there...

I was just looking at entering a 24-hour Endurance race later this year, and Guy Martin is already entered:

He was at another MTB race I was in last year at the same (Ben Nevis) venue... Seems he's sponsored by Hope http://www.hopetech.com/page.aspx?itemID=SPG563

He's pretty good on a bike Thumbs Up Defender "Puma" 2.4 110 County Utility (possibly the last of the 2.4's)
