    True, but If you have been to Vancouver you’d know that cyclists don’t stop at stop signs :)

      I can throw a rock and hit Vancouver!

      Mind I’d have to walk a few minutes first.

      Even with rolling stops, my tracking usually puts me around 20, 25 if I hustle a bit.

          The kind you pump air into? Less nobbly than mountain bike tires, not as thin as road bike tires. The type of tire is the bike shop’s problem.

            I mean for speed, the type of tire affects your rolling friction

                ? Amnesia maybe. Original comment I replied to was you said 30-35 on a bike was not possible and maybe on downhill, and that you averaged 20 km/h. 30 is easily a steady pace on smooth narrower tires. That’s how we got here LOL
