<For Road Cyclists> How fast can you sprint?


What does your bike computer say? Dont assume you are going 35mph, I want actual numbers from your bike computer.

P.S. What is the fastest you have gone downhill?

Down hill on a road bike i've reached 97 km/hr (roughly 60 mph)

on flat i've reached 60 km/hr (roughly 40mph) with tail wind

when I raced track cycling (no wind), I was timed in the 200m at about 11.0 sec which would equate to 65 km/hr


edit: max cruise, I misread your post thinking you said averaged 32 mph....haha. Your time trial is actually be pretty similar to my speed on some of the triathlons I've done....if you lived closer, we could have gone on some rides

One time I finished up a 10 mile time trial hitting 32 mph on my bike computer.
Completed the out and back in 27 minutes 27 seconds.
As one below me pointed out, my answer may be a little misleading.
When I crossed the finish line, I was going about as fast as I could. Looked down at my computer and it read 32 mph at the finish line.
As it turned out that was the only time trial I ever participated in. Where I call home is not a hot bed for bicycling.

at the most times my speed is 38-40 in the road for cycling

someone said that I am like a "whirlwind"
is a hobby to stay fit

the fastest I did when coming out of a single track, my Bell computer said 46 but in reality it felt more like 35-40..

38mph sprinting on flat.

the highest ive reached was 37.5 on a flat
