Hmm… *qam Do “foot speed” FWIW: qughDo cruising speed wabDo speed of sound gho'Do sublight (speed) Note that these are one word, not two. Also note the longer {wa’ rutlh qam Do Duj} “unicycle” – probably more of a definition, not a translations. (Somehow I can’t imagine Klingon warriors disporting themselves on unicycles!)

Although a motorcycle looks like a bike, you cannot say {qam Do Duj} because it definitely goes faster than {qam Do}. This is interesting to me. I always figured the phrase {qam Do Duj} for "bicycle" was a sort of calque on "velocipede", but here {qam Do} might be a phrase in its own right. The fastest a person can go without powered assistance, maybe?
