Your rotational speed would still be 2 revolutions per minute.

Explanation:

If the Ferris wheel rotates at 2 RPM, every point on the radius of the wheel performs 2 complete rotations every minute, regardless of whether you are on the outer rim or halfway down the radius.

If you waned to work out the speed in m/s or mph, some measurements of the Ferris wheel will be required.
