This is my dads friend:
http://www.fredrompelberg.com/en/html/algemeen/fredrompelberg/record.asp

268km/h on a bycicle. On a dried up salt lake in Utah. I know the pics don't look like it, but it's actually man-powered. The gears are just so heavy, he needed to get dragged to 100+km/h before he could even start cycling himself.

anyone else found it weird that he was dressed like a japanese gameshow contestant but his bike was stil looking quite normal.... (im sure its a very strong/expensive/good bike, but it just looks like a pretty standard downhill bike to me...)
