    [SIZE="4"]What is your top speed using a BICYCLE?[/SIZE]

    Flat road or downhill, it doesn't matter... just mention the condition and type of bicycle used.

    Based on what I saw on my speedo, 75 kph.

    Downhill. Pavement. Long frame mountain bike modded with aero-wheel and a couple of bar-ends.

    Location: Somewhere between Tagaytay towards Manila.

    A few seconds later, I crashed kinda hard (my brother said it looked like Boeing 747 crashing, LOL!). Top speed in the car towards the hospital, probably 140kph.


    ---------------------------

    On another time, 51 kph (pure leg power) Ortigas Ave, no tail wind, level section.

    Dunno the exact speed. Maybe it's around 35kmh? It was flat. Pure leg power, I was chasing a Honda Civic EG hatch. then it suddenly stopped I hit the brakes hard then........eventually, I managed to get out of the civics path

    I just pedal leisurely. Sometimes, I race. But, I don't monitor my speed.
