It’s been a heck of a summer for motorcycle rider Colby Raha who got a world’s first and multiple world records in just under 5 months.
In June Colby hit 110mph per and jumped over 23 BMW cars, landing 200-feet to flat breaking the previous record of 171-feet held by Bob Gill. Colby followed that up in early August when he sent the longest V-Twin motorcycle jump at the historic Thunderdome in Sturgis, North Dakota. Colby managed to fly the 550 pound motorcycle 205 feet. To top it all off, Colby also scored the world’s first backflip over a train on a dirtbike over the summer and a ton of street and freestyle riding in between.
Here’s a quick recap of Colby’s remarkable 5 months in a 15 minute short film.
