The little road on the backside of St. Jo will test your courage as well as your intelligence. Several times I have visited the mid 50's. Clearly, my intelligence is losing. Driving up from Austin and returning in the same day. Doubtless my enthusiasm is greater now than at the end of that XL day. I filmed that descent last year hitting 48, one-handed, praying my tires/wheels would hold.... Would have hit 50, but braked briefly at the top before letting it coast... The front end of the Xstream is too light to want to get into the mid-50s...!!! I never take that hill at high speed, I've already given one hip to science and don't relish giving the other
