We’re not sure we fully comprehend what is going on here. Then again, we’re not sure he does either.
But the facts are: the mountain biker is Éric Barone; all signs (name, high speed bicycle/motorbike attempt, OUTFIT) point towards him being French or Italian; fact check — he is French; this happened at Vars at Chabrières, a slope specifically designed for going unconscionably fast; and the man hit 223.3 kilometers per hour, or for us non-metric folk, 138.75 miles per hour. Take away from that what you will. The one thing we are, indeed, sure about is that this red-suited daredevil went FAST.
