On my road bike I can hold 20mph for half an hour. A friend does 25mph 
and it almost looks like that's idling to him, I can't keep up with 
that. On bike paths one has to watch for smokey. I was stopped twice on 
my bike for speeding. In WA state they let me go but in Germany (on a 
road, not even a bike path) they made me pay right then and there. They 
gave me a receipt. I wonder what would have happened if I didn't have 
enough money in German currency on me.

Same here with the car, but I keep to the speed limit. Stupid stuff has 
mostly happened while I was on the bicycle but much less ever since I 
have really bright light on them. They are always on, even on a bright 
sunny day.
