Discussing this with a cycling friend I said (as I did above) that I wasn't going to look at the pictures. The friend said, "I did and now I can't get them out of my mind...."
Many of us approach those speeds on downhills - I get to 40 MPH on one local hill. A rock or a stick or an errant fellow rider....I don't have to - I'm not in a race and I could feather the breaks to keep it down to 30. I wonder if I should.....
