Nah that was the roadie. I have a horrible habit of becoming speedblind on long descents. I basically constantly get faster untill I run out of talent. Got all kinds of silly over 45km.
I do descend local Mountains fixed, 41:26, With a front brake. Its really easy to Control Your speed With Your legs. But on the longer ones you find Your thighs are mush when youre finished.
