Indeed  :D, and Nottingham Uni for its podium finish with their own design.

Very dissapointed that the bikes did'nt break the 120mph barrier, plus John McGuinness was hobbled by a faulty kill switch, which went off when he hit a bump... :(

Thanks Justin.  Any information about the others?  What happens to Sarolea?

Sareola did'nt start, the bikes were seen near the start line, but did'nt race.
I've not heard why.

So far this is the only statement I can find.

You might want to read that a little closer, for some strange reason I suspect it might be parody...

That's good to know (it fooled me).  It wouldn't have made sense for him not to have relieved himself prior to the start for a gut-wrenching 20 minute race.
