    Did a little over 78kph in the Pyrenees a few years ago. That wasn't as scary as doing 72 heading into Laragh from the Wicklow Gap. These days I try to keep it under 65.

    79.9 on the same stretch (Lurgybrack). I was spinning out on a 50/11 and could have done with a standard. It's a great stretch for speed - good surface, wide, straight, good visability, minimum entrances/exits etc. I'd love to have another go at it.

    I managed 79.9 two times down a hill in the town where I grew up, on a mtb with skinny slicks when I was young and stupid. cateye used to measure max speed, so I could just pedal like bejaysus.

    Strava said I did 84 going down into the Naul past teh school but I think thats a spurious gps issue
