Yes the guy was timed on a hill near Hutton le Hole at 49.5mph (nearly 50)
The technique is apparently to put your legs over the handlebars so any sudden stops catapult you feet first rather than following the curve of the big wheel until you stop on the tarmac
Apparently you can lean forward so that you get the rear wheel off the ground to reduce the rolling resistance
