The annual World Human Speed Challenge (WHPSC) is held in early September every year on the tabletop flats of SR305, south of Battle Mountain, Nevada.
The world's fastest humans from around the world, including Australia, Canada, England, France, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Netherlands, Russia, and Scotland will attempt to break current land speed records-on a bike. Highway SR305 just south of town possesses the unique traits necessary for these highly engineered bicycles to achieve top speeds.
