NOW TO TRY A WHEELIE

CHALK another record up to the Tornadoes.

The daredevil motorcycle display team added to their long list of world records at the weekend by making a successful run carrying 58 men on a single 500cc motorcycle for more than 1km.

The display team, formed about 35 years ago, are famous for their feats of bizarre record-breaking behaviour.

The Tornadoes made their debut at the 1982 Asian Games in New Delhi and have been participat­ing in major national and internatio­nal events ever since.

The team is made up of officers and servicemen from the Indian Army and is based in southern India.

They hold 19 world records.

The latest feat was achieved on a Royal Enfield motorcycle.
