I was swaying that sucker back and forth like the last 200m on the Champs.
Over the years, when Cycle Oregon has incorporated the Rim Road around Crater Lake, people have been ticketed by the N.P.S. for exceeding the speed limit. If you have the nerve you can easily get to 50+ on at least one of the descents.
Somewhere at home I have a photo of me passing one of the those speed recorder signs. It told me I was doing 6 m.p.h. I was riding a fully loaded bike slightly up hill into a stiff headwind.
