This is from Terry's Facebook page. It's about time an Electric motorcycle went the distance, and apparently he won too!

So I have good news.....Official results will be posted on Craig Vetter, designer and inventor of the Windjammer fairing,Triumph Hurricane Motorcycle Streamliners and fuel economy motorcycles tonight or tomorrow morning, but I found out unofficially that I won the Bonneville Vetter Challenge! Official distance was 171.7 miles at speeds up to 80 mph. (80 mph is the legal speed limit in Utah).

I'll post as soon as Craig updates the official results page. He's taking his time with details as he's preparing for the hundreds of people that will email him saying that it's impossible for an electric motorcycle to go so far so fast. Many told him an electric motorcycle would never win one of his challenges. So he's being very detailed.
