Very cool DJ. The other day there was a thing on discovery or the science channel about bicycles. Most of it was the dull spandex stuff and how to peddle etc. But they had land speed record attempts with pea pod shaped recumbents doing some thing insane like 64 MPH. (Will look it up and edit) But was really some wild stuff. After watching this vid, am wondering if a full-fairing might not reduce enough resistance for our purposes to be worth it? Slice, divide then slip threw sort of thing.

edit; I was a lil off on the MPH part. Breaking the Speed Record: 81 MPH on a Bike
