My high speed definition of 15+mph, 24+km/h, is based common speed limit for US bike paths.  It would be interesting to hear about speed limit in Europe. 
As far as I know there is no speed limit for bikes. I think I read once on the dutch mailing list that because bikes do not have to have the means of knowing their current speed, it makes no sense to dictate a maximum speed. So while cars crawl at 30kmh through a little village, a cyclist can crash through at 50kmh... (normal speeds for dutch velomobiles it seems ;^) )
Somehow in a laid back position with my arms resting on my head, I don't feel like going any faster than 10mph, 16km/h :)  You must be in good shape to ride 25mph, 40km/h on a recumbent, and great shape on a diamond frame.  At 44mph, 70km/h, most people ride with seat belt and airbags in automobiles.
On flat my normal speed is 30kmh (that is, without using myself up). The terrain slopes where I live so speed varies. 40kmh on flat on any recumbent is really going to cause a sweat ;-)
