Steel WÜl Trivia - 50.191 KM

Question: Who is this road, track, cross, mtb racer?

Answer: Colby Pierce

For the record: Colby held the American hour record at 50.191 KM until Norm Alvis crushed it with a 51.505 KM. Colby was on a Lotus Super Bike, I pedaled Jim's Lotus TT bike from his house in Soquel to Aptos decades ago and I can see how one can easily ramp those up to 31 mph without trying, holding on for an hour is a completely different story. Colby was the original pocket rocket. Kluck and I discovered the difference between 28.0 MPH and 29.5 MPH at the National TT... 30 other guys going 28.5 MPH and Mary Holden going 29.0 MPH.
