Meet the fastest woman on two wheels in the world.

During the week Erin Sills, Director of Consumer Insights at Facebook, but in her free time, she is a real speedfreak. She already has several records to her name, including the fastest ride with two persons on one motorcycle (291,98 km/h). Since this weekend she can go back to a couple of records to her list of achievements to add.

The Mojave Air & Space Port is mainly known as the last resting place for dozens of aircraft, that is simply in the desert to be parked, but the kilometre-long runway is also for speed records. The Mojave Mile and Mojave Magnum 1.5 Mile are the two distances at which to set the fastest time fought can be. The procedure is simple: start from standstill and the vehicle speed after one or one and a half miles, your performance.

Erin Sills put on her BMW S1000 RR time on the mile (1.61 km) as the one and a half miles (2.41 km) for women on motorcycles sharper. After 1 mile she drove 338.12 km/h, a half-mile later, this was even 352.93 km/h! She is not the only place within the top of Facebook with an (un)healthy appetite for speed. So drive, ceo Mark Zuckerberg in a Pagani huayra, and more, and the Facebook parking lot, anyway, full of fast stuff. Like this!
