I too have found this, and yes we too are human. But regarding this issue of "slowing down," I have to chuckle as all too often I recall folks preaching riding in the streets for reasons of "speed," while fully ignoring the reality that even on the streets due to intersections, driveways and merging traffic, one may not be able to ride as fast as one may desire. Doing a fast sprint between lights may not always be possible, in fact during commute hours, is probably not a good idea.
