Some guys were busy breaking the records in speed. Current world record is 130.36 km/h over 200 meters. The averaged speed has been measured from a run on flat ground. This is pretty fast, but short. Another one managed to keep the speed of 85.99 km/h for one hour. Pretty impressive, isn’t it? And this was achieved by the power of their legs alone. The famous guys in Tour De France managed to achieve 95-103 km/h but only on the steepest descents. On the other hand Ondřej Sosenka holds the one hour record on a current U.C.I bike (it is pro’s road bike) of 49.7 km/h.
