Never been 70mph - hit 67.5 on the tandem once - but that's as fast as i've ever gone. I've gotten older but i've never grown up either

Single bike, running 54/11 spun out about 40, after that it was all technique and a very steep, long and straight mountain descent. Not hard to do if you can get aero enough. I can't do it anymore as I just can't get into that small a tuck anymore. I am more than happy to keep it under 50 from now until I can't ride anymore.
