Lightning F40 bullet-bike off to a flyer
in rush-hour traffic
Is it a rocket? Is it a car? No, it's a push bike clad in
aerodynamic fairing.
Malcolm Lamming, of Angmering, West Sussex, uses his
unusual bike for his 64-mile round-trip into and out of work
at Portsmouth each day. Mr Lamming, 42, an engineering
manager, flies past becalmed traffic on the US-made
Lightning
F40, which he bought in Germany. The machine cost £4,000 and has a top cruising speed of
35mph.

So fast,
Lightning
bicycles were banned by the USCF
Remember how great Tim did last year at the
USCF Time
Trials in Moriarty, NM? Well no more of that, thank you. The
USCF has revised their rules to rule out recumbents:
"Recumbents may not be raced in USCF races
unless there is a separate race for this category of bicycle,
and then may be used only in that category." (USCF Rules)
It appears that Tim beat so many upright bikes out
there, even some ridden by famous riders, that the USCF had to
respond to prevent him or anyone from doing it again! Of course,
you can still go out and do it to your local club riders! Not that
we encourage such blatant competition--much!

Fast as
Lightning
in RAAM!
Team ALS
Lightning was the
first to cross the finish line in the famed Race Across America, setting several new records. A nearly 3000 mile
non-stop race, the event is a proving ground for both man and
machine and
Lightning
is proud to have built the bikes and sponsored the #1 team!
How many bike riders receive congratulations from Miss America?

Lightning Team riders are greeted by Ericka Dunlap, Miss
America 2004.
