I assumed it was the hill that was partially responsible for you managing to go down it so fast on a heavy bike.
Nah, it was nowhere near the hill, the route is through Raynes Park on Kingston Road to Kingston, Hampton Court then Walton, so fairly flat enough to maintain a higher average speed.
The front half of the bike is heavier too.
Depends where in RP, but I go over Combe hill, short sharp hill is worth it for the down hill on the other side... (Wimbledon to teddington for me)
Or do you go that way in the hope of seeing James?! :)
