Woman Rides Bicycle to 183.9 MPH, a New World Record
The fastest I've ever gone on a pushbike was around 80 km/h (50 mph), down a hill.It's pretty fun and a great adrenaline rush, but holy shit it's dangerous. It's not like I was wearing protective gear, my polystyrene helmet and lycra wasn't going to protect me at that speed. All it would've taken for me to fuck myself up was a large stone or a nail in my tyre or even just speed wobbles.I stopped hill bombing pretty quick. It's not really worth the risk.The fastest I've managed on a flat is around 60-70 km/h, drafting behind a random car. That's also not safe, if the driver tapped their brakes, I'd go straight into them.There's something so cool about going at car speeds, but without a motor.
