Everyone whip your epeens out. It's Friday. It's time to brag.
What is your top RPM when doing Goldsprints? Best average RPM?

Psst... the track forum is that way.
I can tell you what color my cranks are when i Goldsprint....(they're gold.)
I can also tell you that my welds look super cheap while I goldsprint.
PS... goldsprints are what you do to get away from the leprechauns, right?

I've always thought of Goldsprints as much a social thing as a track thing. A lot of people I know who have zero interest in the track and have been zero times still have done Goldsprints.
Coz they are fun? I dunno.EDIT: Oh yeah, include your ratio!

When I came home from the bars last night, I really had to piss and kinda ran to the bathroom. Is that a Goldsprint?
I don't know what my rpm's were, but my feet were moving pretty fast.

Never ridden rollers before, but I'd estimate my top cadence achieved on flat ground as ~170 with 48x16. I was pretty much spun out at that speed so I doubt I could get it much higher even on rollers without the wind resistance holding me back.
