This thread popped into my head during this morning's ride. I still don't know what my top sprint speed is, but I do know that for me, 25mph takes about 220W, while 30mph takes a bit over 500W. I did 30-ish for maybe 8 or 10 seconds.
I can generate 500W for about one minute, so I reckon I can solo ~30mph for about a minute, then collapse into a field. How fast I've gone for a few seconds? <shrug> My 15-second power is about 800W, but wind drag means I might get to... 35... ish?
