Title: Re: Actually a video doing 64.8 mph Post by MrWizard on Feb 24th, 2016, 9:21pm Urhm .. I can hit mid 60's going down Los Rios .. Not that I'd ever do that or anything .. it carries enough momentum to throw me back up the other side without any pedal input. -- However .. I'm looking for a long decent like that to see what it can really do. Or where I'll panic .. or something jrob_bent wrote:

Title: Re: Actually a video doing 64.8 mph Post by TonyWard on Feb 24th, 2016, 10:15pm I'm young enough to be stupid (others here can vouch for that)..... but after hitting the pavement at 32 mph last summer - I don't want to see the road rash from ~65 mph. Be careful out there! And welcome to Texas!! |
Title: Re: Actually a video doing 64.8 mph Post by MrWizard on Feb 25th, 2016, 1:53pm Several years -- er decades ago, I took a lightning F90 to the Dehydrator in OK. The combination of winds and rolling hills got me going so fast I shot off the front and never saw the paceline ever again .. came in about 90 minutes ahead of the racers .. I had an OLD garmin GPS 3 on that bike (this being the day before we actually had decent cyclocomputers and smart phones) you could download the file into some MSDOS program which would then lay out a kind of analysis .. my rolling average was 26.7 and my "highest speed" was 81. No idea where that was because at the time I couldn't overlay a map or anything .. There were a LOT of rollers and quick descents. Right after that, they banned recumbents from the competition ... jrob_bent wrote:
