These guys have a bad habit of rideing out on our 2 lane Farm to Market roads in the middle of the lane. You top a hill at 55 to 70 (depends on the counties speed limit)and there they are, if someone's comeing the other way, what do you do?

Well, obviously you hit 'em. On the other hand, if you can't stop a vehicle within the distance you can see, you're driving too fast, regardless of the posted limit.

You top a hill at 55 to 70 ...

Do you drive that fast in the fog? If you can't see far enough to stop, you are going too fast. It could just as well be a cow in the road. Those cause a lot more damage to a car than a bicyclist would.
