Bouncing at high cadences

The Norf Downs :)

my max has been 199rpm once on Riverhill Sevenoaks and 198 several times Ide Hill and when on Audaxes elsewhere.

It has to be a combination of feeling loose and brave enough on the day a steep straight hill with a smooth road surface and preferably one that dips out and rises again :)

I must admit I shit myself once trying to get 200rpm on Ide Hill once, I knew 40mph on 68" should do it and was hanging on thighs burning when the back wheel skipped out at 38mph on a patch of gravel on the slight right hand bend halfway down, I locked up skidding the bike straight again but couldn't go from 0rpm back to 180+ instantly and got thrown up out of the saddle and locked it up again skidding the other way.

I looked like a rodeo rider on a Bucking Bronco until I got it back under control at about 25mph, all I kept thinking was I'm in lycra this is gonna fukin hurt.

My mate Mike behind me said "did you see the skidmarks back on the road" I said "there nothing to the ones in my shorts right now"

I usually get 160-170 down Gravel Hill on my commute to work I had 180rpm yesterday morning

That made me smile. know that feeling of trying to get back in tune with your bike oh to well!
