I've only really played this game on the flat, running 48:16. Then one day I absent mindedly sat back down without slowing first.
My legs quickly realised they could'nt pedal so fast when I was seated, and the laws of physics promptly spat me into the road. Made a serious mess of myself, and for the next few weeks had to repeatedly explain why simply sitting down on a bicycle, could result in the removal of all my skin, to leave me looking like something from hellraiser.
Think I was doing around 45-50kph.
