Kudos! My top speed ever was 53.6 mph as noted in the post above. I was on tour and my bike was loaded with 2 rear panniers. I'm not sure if that helped my speed going down hill or not? Seems like I hit 53.6 mph and stayed there for a few hundred feet before the hill ended and I slowed down on the flats.
