You know your going fast enough when...

DonkeyRhubarb

You lift your visor to scratch your face and the wind speed alone is enough to do it!

P.C.

you can keep up with me.

when a car decides to pull out of a junction just in front of you and ya get that toe curling feeling

Zascar

When you turn your head to look sideways and your neck nearly snaps off

Mr Yellow

...the white line is continuous!!!!!!

Or the cars seem like they are all parked.

When you try to wave thanks to the car that moved over and you end up slapping yourself on the back of the head.

MackDeToaster

when you slam on the anchors, bang it down a few gears, flip open the visor and sit up as you feel you're going so slow you could step off, then realise you should still knock off another few kays just to, ahem, fit in better with society.

You're in Dublin, and Cork is just a 30 minute drive away.

The police don't bother chasing you for breaking the speed limit as their cars can only go 140mph and they know they won't catch you.

The speed camera misses you.

Others cars on the road appear to be moving backwards.

You brake, and it takes 5 mins to come to a complete stop.

Your speedometer shows your speed in Mach units.

You've decided you have enough booster rockets attached to your bike.

You come over the crest of a hill only to find that you've just become airborne.

Been there done that!

On a completely unrelated note, steering dampers are great.

You go to overtake and by the time you're indicator flashes, you're already in front of what you were overtaking.

when you see the lights go amber and you speed up to make it and end up 4 sets of traffic lights down the road.

The front tyre screeches when it touches down.

the wind closes your visor for you.

That bend snuck up on you too quickly and you are not sure you will get the bike around it.

That's how every corner felt when I started racing! So you just lean and go through it... And when you come out you're like "God that was some lean angle!" but then you see a pic of yourself and you're nowhere near the limit!
