I feel left out by the other thread hahaha...so how fast has everyone gone on a mountain bike?
Last year I was doing a mad downhill rush on a shale single track with nasty boulders to the sides and hit 75km/h. Then my friend bailed in front of me and did a complete 360 after clipping a wheel on one of the rocks. Miraculously, I flew past him, and he was unhurt, and didn't even destroy a tire...It happened to fast I don't even know what really happened. It was intense. Fastest most exhilerating thing I've ever done. It was definitely a hell of a lot harder than 65km/h on the road. I had a flatbar too, and that thing was running mad with vibration.
