When I was at the "Mike Cook Shootout" at the Bonneville Salt Flats in October,this Streamliner driven by Charles Nearburg broke a record.
What was his Mile Average speed?.
Bonus question:Who is the car named after?.
Murph
I left Ireland in my early 20's, destination: New York City. A rags to riches story ensued but in my forties a showdown in my battle with Alcoholism nearly killed me. Sobering up in '09, I had to get out of Florida, so February 2010 I hit the road for a few months on my 1150 BMW GS....and never went back. My motorcycle is now a 2 Wheel Drive sidecar outfit and my "3 Wheels, 7 Continents, 7 Years" Expedition is now half way around the world.

Hi Murph, sounds like life is good if not a bit cold right now. The photos are stunning. Bought myself a camera and have been practising for our Blog!! We have escaped to Mexico, just before the weather closed in. Currently basking in the sun. Do you have any plans to head south? Did you ever sort your bike beeping!! Whenever I hear that sound I imagine you riding around the corner! Was good to meet you way back in Nakusp. Stay upright. Best wishes for Christmas and a happy healthy 2011 Jill & David
