The upside is, you can only win the bike once, so second place can win; My friend won his $25k bike with second place numbers that way.
This is going to sound terrible, but what stops somebody from jacking up the rear wheels and running a couple thousand "miles" with them in the air? Wouldn't make much sense from the bonus perspective, but that one-time motorcycle prize is a tempting carrot.
