'''Land Speed''' is where a single rider accelerates over a 1 to {{convert|3|mi|km|sing=on}} long straight track (usually on dry lake beds) and is timed for top speed through a trap at the end of the run. The rider must exceed the previous top speed record for that class or type of bike for their name to be placed on the record books. See—[http://www.biker.co.nz/Reviews.asp?id=122] for an example.
