Need For Speed: Bikes on Nat'l Geographic Channel Just aired on the National Geographic Channel (DirecTV, Channel 276 on my package, provider and channel may vary). Good program on motorcycles, especially good coverage of last years Land Speed Record attempts. Also Pro Stock Bike racing, Jay Leno's turbine powered bike, and going fast on two wheels in general. "Are there limits to how fast a person can go on a two-wheeled machine? It is a question that scientists and gearheads alike have experimented with for more than a century. Now, NGC hops onboard some of the fastest bikes in the world to explore these powerful engines and the speed junkies who are determined to push their limits. Then, take a spin with special guest Jay Leno on the new jet-engine bike that he recently added to his collection."
