Now at the Bent Blog of our highly regarded recumbent site as
http://www.bikeroute.com/Recumbents/...es/000077.html is the
following story, complete with the pictures I cite below so you don't
have to keep going back and forth to the web to see them.

And the tall one was, until recently, the world's tallest. At
http://www.atomiczombie.com/!skycycle.htm you can see how it evolved to
14 feet, 3 inches.

The current world record holder, at 18 feet 2.5 inches, as judged by the
Guinness Book of World Records, is Terry Goertzen, a pastor at the
Jubilee Mennonite Church in Winnipeg. He rode his skyscraper for 300
metres to earn his spot in the annals of history. It is documented
he http://www.mbherald.com/43/10/guinness.en.html . But there is
only one picture. And sadly the bike is so tall, that what they offer is
cut off. But I did find the bike you see pictured below at the Salt Lake
City Tribune site:
