It's not on tape, but Brucie from B-bounce has apparently run at over 30mph and overtaken a bus. He then fell over and broke his wrist. :D

The greatest speed i reached was when falling down a hill after a failed attempt at jumping down some stairs...... But me and hilly have prob gone quite fast in Wisbech Park, we just didn't video or measure it, we will do, as soon as hilly arranges another meet (*hint*hint*  get on with it)

Well I'm game, running fast is like running fast on a tread mill and I've max'ed some of them out in the past !?  ;D
Extra padding and I'll have a go !  :o

i say we have a pointing system, points added for no pads :P
ive only spent like, a max of 4 hours on my stilts so i cant promise anything.. wait a minute! what an idea.. get down to your nearest 100m track and get filming!
infact that should be a new sport in the olympics!
those ruddy olympic guys dunno what theyre doin, stilts are the future! ( Pro jump stilts!)
wooo

I've an idea !?
Why not set a time at the London meet this weekend !?  :o
It's one thing running fast be yourself but it maybe better if there's a group ( RACE ! )  Hyde Park must have a nice long path we can use !?  8)

Dark Knight and chocl8, you can count me in for a race. I got to have a go at running flat out on PJs in Brighton last weekend. I don't know how fast I was going but it felt almost like flying when I shot past a few joggers.

And yes, Hyde park has lots of long straight paths, perfect for racing on. OOOh!! I'm getting excited now. This weekend is going to be great. ;D

I've think I've found our speed track !? It's just under 100m between these pionts but I don't know what the surface is like ?
