It's neat, but if you're main reason for riding a bicycle is simply going fast, you're a fucking faggot.

The fastest I've gone is maybe close to 50mph, GPS said 47mph but it blinks out at the fastest part of that particular road. Anyway, that was plenty scary fast. No way in hell would I go over 200mph on a bicycle.

Makes more sense on a 'bent or tadpole for dat aero;

Though stopping becomes a concern. You really really don't want to endo a 'bent. Because then people get to make bento jokes.

Recumbents have weird braking because there isn't really a good way to move your center of mass around. So unlike an upright bike, you can't just rely on your front brake to stop you and balance against the braking force.
