TV tip: Speed record attempt on a snowbike

Ride looks down the tube. Once a month there is an overview of the best TV reports. Included are reports, programs or sports reports on the subject of mountain biking that were broadcast on a German-language channel. These can be viewed on the Internet at a later date using the links provided. This time the TV tip comes a little late, but cold and fast. Florian Jurt wants to set the first speed record on a snowbike in the SRF Winter Challenge. His goal is to reach a speed of 170 kilometers per hour.

Florian Jurt is passionate about riding downhill in summer. In order to be able to pursue his passion in winter too, he converts his downhill bike into a snowbike with a conversion kit. His friend and developer of the "Bullskate" snowbike conversion kit helps him to achieve his goal. The link below reveals whether Florian achieves the desired speed and what effort the team put into it.
