Touchette Raises The Bar For Stock Speed Bike NF And Makes The Fastest Pass In GBike History!
Cedric Touchette (CAN), one of gravity land speed racing's true legends, once held the street luge world record from 2008 to 2016 that he set on the Canadian hill. He was now back at the same hill going after another class record. Touchette, riding a Stock Speed Bike NF (non-faired) would set a new WGSA world record at the 2017 L'Ultime Descente. This was Touchette's debut in the gravity speed bike arena. Cedric had no problems on riding two wheels to a top speed of 126.31 km/h 78.48 mph. Not only would he claim a new WGSA class record, this was the fastest officially clocked speed for a gravity speed bike! Congratulations to Cedric Touchette for his incredible WGSA world record and being the world's fastest man on a gravity bike! GO FAST

Paul Janson Sets WGSA Unlimited Speed Bike F World Record And Breaks Garlands 19 Year Old Speed Record!
Paul Janson (SCO) sets another WGSA world record at the 2017 L'Ultime Descente Speed Challenge. Paul now riding with his gravity speed bike all dressed up and faired, on his record speed attempt he would post a speed of 114.28 km/h 71.01 mph. This speed recording would eclipse Dwight Garlands record of 103.03 km/h 64.20 mph set 19 years ago and set the new world record for the WGSA Unlimited Speed Bike F (faired) class. Paul had commented that the cross-winds had kept him from reaching the bikes true speed potential. Janson would also become the first racer to set two separate WGSA class world records on the same day at this event. Congratulations Paul from all of us at the WGSA on your world records, and outstanding speed accomplishments. GO FAST
