Hmmm that bike- that is 7 pics above the bike with the bicycle spoked wheels- has a single sided swing arm on the front wheel. That's pretty cool. Is there another name for that?

Now I know. Thanks Geo. And that bike that Duane posted. I can't imagine that being too cool while riding.

Luckily they never rode it to the traffic lights ( salty roasted nuts anyone :-} and at nearly 300 KPH on the track the breeze worked wonders :-}
