After experiencing a couple rides with a fairing on the front of my recumbent, I want to try that hill again with the fairing on. I bet I could get close to 60 mph, even though it's less than a quarter mile hill. I was cruising on level ground at around 23 mph quite easily with the fairing (that's about 3-4 mph faster than normal) and on the slight decline where I'm normally at about 24-25, I was pushing 30.

Unfortunately, it's just too inconvenient to park the bike with the fairing on (it adds about 18 inches of length), so I'll be doing without on the commuter. Makes me really want to get a streamliner or a velomobile though.
