5 Minutes With...Robbie Maddison 12 28 2007
Big plans for New Year's Eve? Watching the ball drop
on Dick Clark’s New Year's Rocking Eve? For 25-year-
old Australian Robbie Maddison, he’s got other plans.
He’ll be attempting to set a new world record for
distance jumping aboard a Service Honda CR500 in
front of the Rio All Suite Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas,
as part of the Red Bull Experiment. Maddison’s feat
was supposed to run in conjunction with Rhys Millen’s
attempt to back-flip an off-road racing truck, but
unfortunately Rhys suffered a training accident and will
not be able to perform the stunt. Regardless, if you
want to witness the Red Bull Experiment live, tune into
ESPN on New Year’s Eve. For more information, check

give Robbie a call today to see how his preparations
are going for the big jump. interview on racerxill.com
