I'm saying my 7200 was a slow bike. It would take something to push it to near 30mph,especially in 38/11. My Buzz's max gearing is 38/11,and I can spin that out easily on several hills here in DC.

If you really are in that gearing,going that fast,on that bike,then you are spinning way too much and need to shift up. But I'm having trouble believing someone this new to biking(according to your post you've only been riding a month) is going that fast on a comfort bike in that gear. BTW folks,this is what he's riding:
