A benefit to having a front fairing beyond just speed is it reduces the amount of wind on your face, which is nice if there are lots of bugs in the air

100 m/s tandem when
once that's done, how many cyclists does it take to break the sound barrier?

One cyclist is 250W/700W(short time), take a jet, and divide its power down,
most of planes stay subsonic, because supersonic is very inefficient at this time.
300 km/h - 800 km/h is common.

you have to account for the additional mass, surface area, and drag. i don't think there is a solution efficient enough to do this.

Generally, a little wind in the face is nice when you're putting out a lot of watts.
It's certainly nice when there are a lot of bugs though indeed.
