The Bloke was also leaning into a turn when he was caught!
Good for him! Hope he enjoys walking for the next two years.

Geez, at least they could have told us what the boys were riding. My guess would be Huyabusas, capable of approaching 200 mph. But not with me on it! The Brits are mad for their bikes.

No mention of what brand/model of motorcycles were involved!
Guess they don't want other folks to get any ideas.

I wouldn't presume to vouch for the accuracy of the speedometer on my V65 Magna which I owned in college, but I took that up to around 166-168 once on a straightaway on a calm evening. My helmet was threatening to rip my head off at the time so I couldn't see the exact number.

My first instinct is to answer: COOL!
But, you can't let them continue to do this.. Some innocent is going to be killed eventually.
They're either going to have to move off the highway or go to germany and ride on the autobahn, where this kind of thing is expected.

A motorcyclist was recorded travelling at 157mph as he flashed past a police camera, followed by a friend doing 148mph, a court was told yesterday.I hate this dude, I thought I was the overall speed champion clocked and ticketed at 149mph (not that the cops cought me, .
Since Europe uses metric system, that would amount to 238km/h.

I have a Kawasaki ZX-11, capable of 176 mph but have not seen it above about 145-150 (in Nevada). Also a Harley, capable of about 105 but it would probably blow up at that speed after about 10 minutes.

And the Bobbies caught them how...not in a Mini-Cooper I suspect.

157 mph is moving. The fastest I've ever driven was 130 mph (on I-5 in Southern Oregon), and things got a bit hairy at that speed.

How can they prove that HE was the one driving? No proof there.
1.6 kilometeres equals 1 mile. thuse 150 km would be 93.75 that is nothing remarkable, but at a turn?

A motorcyclist was recorded travelling at 157mph . . . " Don't try this in Benton Harbor.

They need one of those James Bond switching license plates. Or a little curtin/rag to cover that plate when having a good time.

Sounds like a challenge to us Yanks from the Limeys to me. I think I know of an Indian that could get the job done with a little taller gearing and some suspension tweaks.
