I stop pedaling above 35 in most cases. Maybe below 35, depending on the hill.

yeah I have no intention of going anywhere north of 50, heck probably not going past 40 again although I had no idea I was when I did. 35-7 feels plenty fast for me and throw in some corners it’s enough for me. Fun to read all the replies though!!
