I got this link sent to me by a friend: Kidd of Speed. This is definitely worth a look for the chilling pictures of a nuclear wasteland left after the catasrophic failures at the Chernobyl nuclear plant.

The speed in question relates to the fact that the author of the article was passing through on a motorbike.

The whole scenario brings to mind many of the works of fiction centred on nuclear warfare, e.g Neville Shute’s “On The Beach” and also the intransigence associated with the Soviet era. Thought provoking stuff indeed.
