The ‘world’s longest motorcycle’ has been built by a man from Stamford. Colin Furze, 29, built the 46 foot long bike because “I just thought it would be pretty cool to do.”

To enter the record books, Colin had to ride the bike for 100 metres. He filmed the evidence (on You Tube at http:// www.youtube.com/colinfurze ), which was then sent to Guinness along with signed statements verifying the feat.

To be honest, I'm with you. The only thing that makes it a motorcycle is it runs on two wheels. Still, if getting in the record books makes him happy and he doesn't hurt anyone, let him get on with it!

Actually, good on him, he is doing it more for a laugh than anything else! At least he didn't spend oodles chroming it up and using nothing but the best as some might! At the end of the day it is a piece of shit, but was great for a laugh!
