Old, I am suddenly your enemy because I disagree with you!?!? By the looks of the posts I am not your only enemy today. If I made an enemy with everyone I disagreed with, I would be a recluse. Regardless, if you think I am your enemy that is fine, I hold no hard feelings against you.
Your pedal bike numbers over 100mph are correct, BUT they are drafting behind a special vehicle. No wind resistance. The Cd would make them a lot slower. The fastest pedal bike without any aid (just a bike and a person) is right around 80mph.
