Well volunteered.
I did cycle at over the speed limit in Richmond Park a few weeks ago, but narry a policeman in sight. That may have had something to do with it being midnight.

I think instead of speed limits there should a maximum kinetic energy allowed, varying by road type.
So a Lorry would have to go slower than a truck (and that would also vary on whether they were loaded or unloaded)
A Land Rover would have to slower than a Fiat 500.
And cyclists could basically go as fast as we want to.

I can't see a downside.
