139mph biker caught on 60mph road

THE FASTEST man ever caught by North Yorkshire Police has been banned from the roads for six months after being clocked on his ‘superbike’ travelling at 139mph on a B-road.

Steven Graham Smith, 40, became the highest recorded speeding biker in the Force’s history when he roared past a mobile speed camera, which had been placed on the 60mph B1217 near the village of Saxton on the afternoon of September 29.

The golf course worker had visited a biker cafe on his Aprilia RSV4 before speeding back to his home in Wetherby.

He was also fined £475 and ordered to take a re-test before being allowed back on the roads.
