    no mention of recumbents

    Yes there is:
    "The highest speed ever officially attained on the flat, without using
    motor pacing and wind-blocks, is by Canadian Sam Whittingham, who in
    2001 set a 142.51 km/h (80.55 mph) record on his highly aerodynamic
    recumbent bicycle. This stands as the official record for all
    human-powered vehicles."

    and in the "Types of Bicycle" section:
    "On a recumbent bicycle the rider reclines or lies supine."

    So it's true about visibility on 'bents not being up to par 😉
