i is fast today

[alecstilleyedye]

clocked over 30mph without a tailwind, gradient or slipstream. didn't last for ages as the road rose upwards before i turned off, but a nice start to the day nonetheless.

Nice work


I seem to max out at 26-27 at the moment, I'm looking forward to breaking 30...................one day

Well done, i came in at about 23/24mph when i got going, but i bet i'm older, fatter and less fit than you!

Nice morning for it though.

cheers chrises. keep it up. last april(06) i was having to use a mtb to get up the local rise i can now (occasionally) sprint up in 52/13, so i'm sure you'll get to do 30 on the flat too.

anyone who has reached a personal milestone shoud be proud of themselves, however insignificant it might be to the faster/slimmer/well equipped members on here.

I hang my head in shame at having exceeded the speed limit.

i hang my head in shame at missing the obvious innuendo in my own post (oo-er).

 

[Abitrary]

I remember a bike shop owner once looking me in the eye before a road bike test ride, and ernestly telling me to obey the speed limit.

I knew he was kidding, but it still gave me a frisson

 

[starseven]

will you please stop it!!!

10 miles in 30 minutes, 50 miles in three hours, climb this hill , cycle that gradient and on and on .....and now hit 30mph on the flat.

The minds willing but the bodies flagging!

 

[Terminator]

I got to 70mph yesterday.

 

[buggi]

i set off a slow down sign in a 40 zone once. (yea, ok, i admit, i was going downhill at the time )

i'm lucky if i get above 18 on the flat, and that's with a tail wind on a good day!
