Totally fearless is the only way to describe the rider.  :o   Note the lack of run-off areas and how close the guard rails and walls are on the outside of the corners.  It's a most interesting camera setup which must be gyro mounted to keep the camera horizontal through all the g-force changes.

It's a huge complex:

For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

A speed readout would have been fascinating.

so going by my primary school math...

I figure he was going average of 200km/h around the track.

200 per hour divided by two
100 per 30 minutes divided by two
50 per 15 minutes divided by two

equals 25km per 7.5 minutes.

Track length is about 22. something km and the vid was 7.5 minute

So around 200 km

(I'm such a math genius, they wrote Good Will Hunting based on me)

A bit easier:

7.5 minutes is 1/8 of an hour.  He does 22 km in 1/8 of an hour, so he averages 176 kph.
