Yeah, that was me, bunny suit aswell (I wonder if it's a first on mad friday?)

A last minute decision to bring it, lots of messing around on the campsite with testing and setting up but it was worth every minute.
am just wondering if anyone on here saw it and whether you got any shots/video clips?

Thanks

Paul

chained to one of the granstands? if so that was it, although no engine on at that time.

I get the feeling that this was the first jet powered pushbike ever to be at Le Mans, certainly got a huge round of applause when i rode it down past Houx round about and Blue Nord (think that was the place)

Not to a grandstand - to a pole near the Kangaroo TV stand and probably around 4PM. Had a jet engine on it...or a over-complex, metal 1930s hair dryer smile
