This reminds me of the time when my friend and I were riding up a quite steep hill that had those "your speed is ____" machines. We were struggling up the hill going about 8 mph joking about the machine thing, when it starts flashing slow down.

I think it picked up a car far away, but it was really funny at the time.
Also, I hit 46 mph on a descent last week. Was braking, so sometime I want to try it without touching the brakes.
