Fraid not 59 mph is my record...


My record is the same (technically 59.6). That's why I mentioned 60 because I knew it would best me. I know though, that those speeds take special road to get up that fast. Its not uncommon for me to get just over 50 on some of the routes I ride. Others, I may not ever see anything above 30 because the downhill is just too dangerous.

Sounds like you can fly pretty well there red.


6-8 mph going up 50-59 mph going down says everything about my physique! Can't climb for toffee but coming down there is no finer a descender...

Photoshop? Well, after you guys see all that rain during the ToC, I can understand you doubt. Wink
