Story in Bicycling. And video. She is 45. Rode a 7 foot long mountain bike with 17" motorcycle wheels. Tethered up to 100+ mph before starting to pedal. 488 gear inches is what she "pedaled".

Another video from Wall Street Journal??? Says they released the tether at 163 mph. So she pedaled from 163 up to 184 mph. Can't understand why they didn't just drive up to 200 mph before releasing the tether. Then say she rode 200 mph!!!!
