Backyard Visionary - John Britten

One of the Mystery Inventors we have had featured was John Britten. He invented the "Britten V1100" motorcycle that went on to break numerous speed records.
We watched a documentary made in the early 1990's about his journey to Daytona to race the bike.
See the link below where you can watch the whole thing.
Watch "Backyard Visionary"

We're very proud to be from this little country and have such amazing people changing the world.
Sadly in 1995, John died at age 45 after a short battle with melanoma.
See the link below for more info about John.
