How Fast Can A De-Restricted eBike Really Go?

The majority of 2 wheeled sports are about just one thing, how fast can you go? With riders in the Tour de France reaching speeds of over 100km/h on analogue road bikes. Why isn't there an eBike version of these sports? Rich Payne and Steve Jones think this is down to the speed restrictions for eBikes and eMTBs put in place. So they have invented a new sport... Road-Cross, which involves riding de-restricted eBikes around a 1-mile track and seeing how fast they can actually go!
