ROB ROCKS THE WORLD HP
SPEED CHALLENGE!
NEVADA: Oct
2002
 Rob
English, Pocket Rocket owner and one of the fastest lads on the planet, is currently
going like a bat out of hell in the World Human Powered Speed Challenge 2002 in
Nevada. The latest news to hand is that he won a drag race against "Fast Freddy
Markham, former Olympian and world HPV record holder riding his Gold Rush Colorado...."
to quote Rob. Who said little wheels don't keep up? And Rob is riding a regular
garden-variety Pocket Rocket, not even a Pocket Rocket Pro!
Rob writes, "My trusty Rocket did sterling service as a warm-up bike for my 70mph
run (and crash.......)". Check out Rob's progress on his website.
Also, look for him in our ad in the October 2002 issue of CYCLESPORT
USA magazine. The ad is reproduced here. Incidentally, on the same page is
an ad featuring twice-RAAM winner Lon Haldeman (www.pactour.com)
on his Air Friday - like we said, who said little wheels can't fly? LET'S ALL
SEND applause and encouragement to Rob: [email protected]
PS: Speaking of FAST,

former editors or Bicycling Magazine. Fred's new E-book will have you riding like
Rob in no time flat:
