50+ Trainer Folks - What is your Maximum Cadence for 10-15 seconds?

Mine is 151, as measured by my cadence meter. Using a moderate to light tension/gear ratio combination.

What's yours?

No idea as I don't have trainer but cadence of 100 on the Tandem in 48/11 = 30mph. One memorable ride and we reached 45 mph for about 1 minute. We were still pulling hard when the lungs gave out but 45mph is a cadence of 150 and I never want to do it again.
