Every Sunday since I got the new bike. The old bike couldn’t cruise at better than 18 1/2, the new bike is smoother. Oddly enough while the new bike cruises faster it hasn’t beaten the downhill top speed of 24.3, of course I haven’t goosed it before an underpass yet either, maybe this week. Dirt is really where the speed gets scary, over 13 or 14 all steering seems to cause at least a little skid, never really feel in charge. Kind of fun actually.

Sweet!

I'm a roadie myself (did the MS 150, Duluth MN to Blaine, 2 weeks ago with my wife & "The Cubs"), but my wife prefers the fat tire world.

What kind of bike, if you don't mind my asking?

Cheers!
