    40.2 on a Trek Hybrid in the same place. Not an experience I want to do again on the same bike. :D

    There is a big thread on here about the same topic. Have a search.

    74kph, decending on the south side of Ditching, on the London to Brighton Cycle.

    Knees clamped to the top tube, and butt checks clenched.
