My cyclelite app said 76 mph today (going down a hors categorie hill). I don’t buy it though. It was only 50 mph last time and I wasn’t going THAT much faster.

I am not saying it’s all correct, but definitely interesting to think about.

99mph uphill, into a headwind.

Its worth noting that my bike computer (probably like most of yours) is not that accurate due to poor setup.

I hit 32mph on a steep descent before hitting a car door which someone kindly opened right in front of me! The bike was destroyed as the front fork snapped and the frame was bent. I wasn’t too badly injured but had whiplash injuries and cut hands but managed to walk home OK (although in a very confused state). The lady was prosecuted by the police for having no wing mirrors and for failing to check it was safe to open her door. I also sued her for personal injury and the cost of a new bike and received a reasonable sum of compensation from her insurer and bought a shiny new bike I always wear a helmet now and give parked cars a wide birth – especially if there’s anyone inside.
