The top speed for a bicycle depends on the rider (strength,
stamina, coordination, muscle speed), the gearing of the bicycle,
and the terrain it is being ridden over. The current record speed
is 268.831 km/h - which was set on a specially designed bicycle
ridden behind a dragster (to eliminate most of the air drag) on
October 3, 1995 on the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah, USA.
