That really depends on what you think of as a bicycle, and under which conditions? With an UCI-approved bike, anything human-powered, downhill on a MTB, descending on a road bike, on the flat solo, on the flat behind a pace vehicle?

Fastest unassisted is a streamlined recumbent, fastest gravity assisted is a DH MTB, fastest behind a pace vehicle is a custom build pretty much undrideable under any other conditions.

Fastest, unassisted, long course, still looking like a bike would be a TT(time trial) or a triathlon bike.

Fastest, unassisted, short sprint, still looking like a bike would be a track bike.
That's a fairly pointless question, as the bicycle won't be going anywhere w/o the rider. The rider, who's also the motor, is more important than the ride.

There's also more than one type of bicycle, and more than one type of riding. "Fastest" won't really mean much unless you set up some rules about what you think is allowed.

Riding in the wake of a custom built car, one guy managed 150 MPH. Downhill mountainbikers can hit 100+ MPH.

The record for human powered on the flat is about 80 MPH, in an all enclosed, torpedo-looking bicycle.

Top speed for something fairly bicycle looking on the flat is about 40 MPH.

Who is the fastest bicycle rider in the world?

thomas armandoThat's really a pointless question unless you specify what type of riding you're asking about - track, road, DH, Time Trial etc.Even then it's still quite uninteresting, as cyclists mainly race other cyclist. As long as you're the fastest of the pack, the speed as such doesn't really matter.
