well the big time spriters hit just over 40 mph on the finish line, but they have lead outs. i wonder if it would even be possible to get to that kind of speed on flat land with no draft of any kind.
my geuss would be to try and find a position that keeps you very low and leaned over the bike but still making lots of power. do pros even get out of the sadle on a sprint finishes, or does that create too much drag?
