There's a number beside my followers. It's over 200 now. I'm sure that's an over-estimation of who actually reads and follows Newstuff, but I know a few of you who would appreciate a post of this nature.
Over 200 miles an hour-

This is the ultimate in green tech for the speed demons.
If you care about the earth, but also want to pass it by in a blur, this is the motorcycle for you.
Unfortunately it may cost more than 200 arms and legs, as of the posting they have yet to put a pricetag on their website.
I am not a very good rider of cycles, but when it comes to green technology and super fast bikes, I have to take a ride!
Have a great week!
