I was more concerned about overtaking cars that might pull out of a side road and not expect a cyclist to be roaring down the hill as fast an automobile. The fact that I have a pretty good case of gravity poisoning (I'm no featherweight at 235) helped a lot with the speed too, I think.
I can't believe no one pulled out in front of you! I would have been scared you-know-whatless.
