    Three bikes go over 100mph

    1ST Rutter 104.056 mph
    2ND McGuinness 102.215
    3RD Miller 101.065

    After the race a delighted Michael Czysz said:

    “The greatest motorcycle riders and manufacturers in history are synonymous with the Isle of Man TT Races and I am so proud to be adding the name Segway Racing MotoCzysz to that list. What the team has achieved today is truly ground-breaking and is the culmination of years of hard work.”

    Damn impressive! Now how long before they can run 6 laps? Swapping battery packs will probably be a mongrel...

    Doubt it, they will make a quickchange battery set up if it comes to it, like they've done with wheels on race machinary...

    Yep, but it's another leap forward they have to make...

    All power to them

    OR AN INDUCTION CHARGER!

    Maybe they should start using capacitors!

    or warm semiconductors!

    Yeh, but they have the added problem of connecting power up, as well as the mechanical; and I've heard those packs can vaporise spanners if they are put in the wrong place...
    Still fairly simple to get around though, and its not like they will ride off if the pit crew forget to connect up the battery
