Team Primal

Primal Speed Bike is a racing team, developing some of the fastest human powered vehicles in the world. Composite materials, ingeniously engineered fairing, and perfectly configured mechanisms drive the Primal 2. With this excellent design from leader and designer George Leone, and superb athleticism and stamina from pilot Ron Layman, we have already pushed beyond 66 miles per hour at the races in Battle Mountain, Nevada.

Team members in picture L to R: Dave Pocock, machinist; Carole Leone, fabricator/strategy; Tamaki Layman, launch crew; Ron Layman, Pilot/designer; John Pocock, Chief Mechanic/fabrication; George Leone Chief Designer/composites guru.
