Work on getting your cadence up. I have the opposite problem. I can't go slow. I can't pedal and go less than about 15 mph, unless i've got a headwind or am going up a hill. (Then, I have no problem going slow. or even slower.) A lot of this is that I'm riding a road bike with really tall gearing (38/52 in front, 14-38 in back (only six speeds, talk about jump from 2nd biggest to biggest!) ) so I don't have many slow gears.
