Glimpse of future riding(?)

Next up a BBG? Quite an accomplishment!

Too much planning for me... LOL

I found it interesting but the bike is heavily modified from a stock Zero. Craig Vetter helping with the bodywork? Holy S**t! It's an impressive achievement at any rate. I'll be more interested when the technology evolves to where it's practical for an average owner to attempt.

UCCC on one?

With the time allowed for the UCC, I would think that the ride is doable now with pre planned charging stops. (?)

Looks like too much work.....

Next time they should just get a 50' extension cord, plug it in to a generator in the center of someone's cul-de-sac, and count off the laps....
