Speedy Bob is a steel wild mouse roller coaster located at Bobbejaanland in Lichtaart, Antwerp, Flemish Region, Belgium. Opened on 2 July 1998, it was originally paired with a mirror-image roller coaster that was removed in 2008.
The remaining roller coaster is a non-standard Mack Rides wild mouse model, as the lift hill is on the left hand side of the unit.
