My fastest outdoor speed is 48,5mph (78km/h). I had DeRosa King Xlight those days and it was about 2010ish. I was in a place where was 2 steep slopes 10° and 12°. There was a traffic signs for that, probably meant to trucks.

When
I hit 25mph I get nervous. You really are a small rock away from disaster.

For some reason I couldn’t add astonished face. It only let me add “like. “
I do NOT like going even half that fast.

@berty bassett
2 flats? What tires are you running?

Flat ones !! Rookie mistake , I was so cold first time that I cut corners and didn’t check the inside of tyre - tiny piece of metal sticking through so flat again within 5 mile , I can’t grumble as I think first pictures all year continental 5000s - I know tubeless would have survived but sometimes tubeless are more hassle to fix - just personal preference what backfired this time - twice !
