I am having difficulty understanding whether it broke its own cycle and is now crying, or broke someone else’s cycle and is now being intimidating.
Technically the first one (clown costume implies he’s an entertainer), but I feel like either interpretation works
It’s a penny farthing, so he probably fell off and it hurt really bad so now he’s crying.
It’s actually not too easy to ride at 30km/h
Presumably the hippo also needs to ride a bike on that stretch, so they probably aren’t managing their full running speed.
You’re right, they’re probably faster than their running speed given humans are faster on a bicycle than running too.
Maybe if you engineered some new pedal vehicle that is no longer really a bike, but hippos have neither the build nor the kind of gross motor skills (or prehensile forelimbs) needed to be successful as a high-level bicyclist.
Fucking racist.
racer.
Technically, hippos don’t swim. They run along the ground. So if you pick a deep enough body of water, you might still have a chance.
How’s their endurance?
Probably shit, like most mammals.
Edit: I looked it up, and they can maintain 29-40km/h charge for about 150m.
Whelp, I’m dead. GG hippo.

Ima be honest it can probably beat me on a bicycle as well.
Are these hippo sprint speeds, or real proper endurance speeds?
There’s no way hippos have the long-distance endurance of humans. Pretty much everything is faster than humans at sprinting, but for endurance running, humans are next level. (Not me of course, I’m not really fit enough to be called human in this context.)
i dunno I just watched phelps vs shark and I think he beats a hippo
I thought “gun” was party of the tri.
You’re thinking of biathlon, with cross country skiing and rifle.
