My friend Milt Raymond, an MIT graduate in nuclear engineering, designed a backwards facing bicycle for low speed stability tests, a preliminary to his ultimate bicycle project. I believe he is referenced in Bicycling Science by David Gordon Wilson but not necessarily for this particular work. Milt, unfortunately, never built his ultimate bicycle.
The one where you lay on your back and you essentially see the road upside down while steering with your hands needs its own name, like "Upsie-backsie-ring-a-ling" or something.
