His distance was just shy of 323 feet. Sixty feet in height. My wife and I watched it and really enjoyed it. After his first jump he says "I'm going again." His second was a little shorter. But not by much. Just terrific.

Caught that on the news last night. Not a big fan of this stuff, but even a non follower has to appreciate how incredible that jump was, it was like he was riding a rocket!

Yeah, I'm not a big follower of motorcycle racing or motoX etc. But it was pretty cool. That dude has got nerves of steel. It was pretty fun to watch. Here it is two days later and I'm still thinking of it.
Originally posted by Frank Burns I was talking about that with a co-worker yesterday. Evel got his bikes right off the showroom floor probably. Just plain stock.
Give Evel a modern bike back when he was doing his thing strong and he'd have jumped The Mighty Mississippi!
