Freddy Markham's customized bicycle is publicized as the world's fastest bicycle. According to the record books it sets a record of 85.991km (53.43 miles) in the hour velocity, men category. Watch the video to see it for yourself!!
Implications - Unfortunately for those of us who drool at the site of a bike this fast, it is hardly a street-legal ride. Nevertheless, it's still really impressive that Freddy Markham was able to design and build a cycle that could reach such extreme speeds. I doubt they will let him compete in the Tour De France with it, so he'll have to settle for the still-respectable title of having the world's fastest bike.
