Bikes: lots... even a Raleigh twenty !!!

Look around for a second hand Bike Friday Pocket Rocket/Pro or a New World Tourist. Get one with chainrings bigger than the standard 53/39, maybe even up to 60/50...then you'll get real speed.
Just realise though, that it's better to learn to spin with a higher cadence than grind out tall gears.
