Okay I stand corrected on the big city thing, if you find someone who can pedal 55 mph on a bike let me know, I'm sure there's someone who could but I've never met them , just reading the first page and realizing the speed limit for bikes in the places mentioned is 10-15mph , then you'd be better off putting your running shoes on, I mean I haven't been on a bike since I was a kid except for the last month and I'm out of shape and I can do better then that , for someone who's in shape and rides bike every day for (insert number of years here) it is laughable at best,
