Paging Cypress - 40 mph sprint needed
https://www.montana.edu/cpa/news/nwvi...?article=3671+
Just got this in an e-mail from MSU for the "latest goings on". Sounds pretty cool that they're trying bent racing. However I came upon a quote which got me thinking.
"The team is hoping to reach speeds above 40 mph in the Fast Cat."
Our very own Cypress can reach these same speeds in a sprint on a real bike into a headwind. Therefore I propose a race between the human quad machine and his hometown Fast Cat, let the speculation begin

!It seems HPV racing isn't as big up there as down here. Our HPV team hit 50 on the flats, didn't even win this year.
