The Fastest Bicycle tells the amazing story of Sir Roger Bannister’s grandson Barney Townsend and his team’s attempt at the World Human Powered Vehicle land speed record at Battle Mountain, Nevada, which stands at an eye-watering 89.5 mph. Think Cool
Runnings meets F1 Drive to Survive as Barney and the team tackle a missing bike, high-speed crashes, team member departures, serious design flaws and injury. It’s a story of perseverance beyond limits and of community, as the team discover that their competitors can also be their greatest allies.
