This quickly escalated into motorcycles; in fact Speed has raced the Blackwater 100, the toughest cross country race 8 times, and finished as high as third. He won the New England Championship Enduro. After owning 17 race bikes, he had to get out of bikes, because “it hurts when you break things, like ribs and fingers and things.” ​
