I know I'm old, and slow, and don't race anymore, and have lots of obligations, but a while back I decided that trying to make it faster and faster wasn't for me. Now I keep my downhill speeds at about 30 or so which gives me a longer time to enjoy the ride. I know its rationalizing, but I just feel more comfortable on the bike. However, have yet to erase my max speed from the computer of 38 mph on my touring bike. That was me and gear, so figure 300 pounds. I guess if the battery every goes dead I'll lose that one too.
