50.8 MPH today!

[Pat]

x-no-archive:yes

Yes, I managed to get in an aero position on the drops and racked up 50.8
mph downhill (naturally) on the road today. So what, you might say---this
was in north Texas! Yee Haw! It CAN be done here. The ironic thing is,
the hill has a name:
Nice Hill.

According to my new wireless computer, I topped 335.5 yesterday...can't figure
out what's so exciting about 50 :-)

What gearing did you use? 52 x 13 + 170mm crank + 700c x 23?
