  • 8 years ago
Footage of a cyclist using a rubbish truck's slipstream to build up an incredible amount of speed on a road in Croydon, UK.

The video, filmed on a handlebar-mounted camera on Kent Gate Way last year, shows the cyclist reaching what he claims were record speeds.

Brian Couch, 42, has been "commuting the route solidly for five years" and is a very experienced cyclist and motorcyclist.
