I can regularly hit 40+mph going down hills. All you do is go into your top gear(usually 53-11) and pedal as you go down till you are going as fast as you want to go.

A leadout can help get you to 40MPH in a flat sprint... you still need to be a pretty powerful rider though.

I guess you never saw Breaking Away, All you need is some cheezy Italian music in the background and a Mac truck to draft behind. With these key elements you can reach 60mph, I really think you should split the cost of the speeding ticket with the truck driver, it is the classy thing to do.
