Last year we showed you video of Francois Gissy running nearly 180mph on his bicycle which is powered by a hydrogen peroxide rocket. At the time, Gissy was running at an airfield of some kind and was limited in speed due to the length of the surface he was working on. Those videos showed him getting the bicycle stopped mere feet from the end of the runway which was cutting things too close for comfort even at the slower speeds. He told us at the time that he would be back and that ultimately he would go over 200mph atop the bicycle and guess what? He was right! On November 7th at the Circuit Paul Richard in southern France he was able to use the long straightaway to run the big number, blast away from a Ferrari, and show the world that his bicycle and his massive balls were capable of going 200. Between the guy jumping the dirt bike off the ski jump the other day and this dude making 200 on a rocket powered bike, we’re surrounded by some pretty gutsy guys this week!

A man named Arnold Nerarcher designed the bicycle that Gissy has been riding for a couple of years and Gissy obviously trusted the man with his life, which turned out to be the right move because after repeated  big speed runs he and the bike are no worse for the wear. A number that is either more or less impressive depending on how you look at it, the bicycle covered the quarter mile in the SIX SECOND ZONE. Now we have told you that Captain Jack McClure will be driving his rocket cart next weekend in Valdosta, Georgia and that’s impressive but can you imagine this bicycle racing against a top sportsman car or something in exhibition? It would blow the doors off of any strip that booked it in. Sure, it would be outlawed instantly but it would sure be some fun to see the bicycle take on a real piece of iron in competition mode.

Peak speed of 207mph was achieved in about 250 meters according tot he video you’ll see below. That thing must be a terror to hold onto when the rocket lights off and the bicycle is doing everything it can to rip itself out of the hands of the rider. This takes some serious guts and Gissy certainly has proven that he is equipped with such things. Simply put? Wow.
