Speeding?

[OUTLAWD]

Anyone do this? I haven't been able to work up the cajones to do it yet, even at modest speeds above the limit. I keep telling myself next time I'm sitting behind slow drivers on I25, or on an empty canyon road (or wherever) that I'm going to exceed the speed limit, even slightly, just because I'm on a bike and can, but I haven't done it yet. For some reason, it scares me more than the boogie man, and I don't know why! It's not because I could get a ticket, or seem like a douche to all the other people on the road, or endanger myself and other people on the road...I don't know what it is.

ps: I know speeding is illegal, but I still want quality advice on how to do it

Hell no. It's only legal in Cali anyway. I would NEVER do it in CO.

on a completely related note, am I the only one noticing the influx of completely asinine posts lately...I realize it's springtime people, but come on...

maybe we can get a few more threads going...running red lights, running from the po, proper sandal wearing for canyon carving, rear-ending poeple 101

I can start a how to loop out thread no problem. WillB and Zach929 can come in for backup!

I only speed after consuming mass quantities of beer.

I only speed on federal and never with a helmet. I find its much more enjoyable if I use one gallon of industrial stangth styling gel to keep my head safe. After a long Sunday afternoon of speeding from one red light to the next I find its fun to turn around (12 point turn of course) and do it in the other direction.

I've done it on c470 between alameda and Morrison road. Id do it again too.

[FZRguy]

I never speed, but I do lane share.....on the sidewalk.

I don't even like to ride in double digits.

[OUTLAWD]

I don't even like to ride in double digits.

so you only ride in triple digits? any tips on how to do it? do I need to be in a full tuck if I'm just starting out?

No no... I top out at 9mph... usually sidesaddle with an umbrella drink in hand.

It's not only speeding that scares me, it's roads and people. I take dirt roads everywhere. That way I can average a comfortable 6-8 mph at all times. There usually isn't any posted speed limit, so I just assume it's "as slow as possible."
