clarification: WHEN TRAFFIC IS CLEAR ENOUGH.
80-85 mph on the beltway for me when it allows, keeps me in flow of the fast lane, and I pass the majority at about 2-5 mph. A few insane still pass me. No tickets yet. |

75-80 for me, depending on traffic. I usually ride just a little faster then the majority of traffic. In my expierence, slowly riding through traffic is safer then staying on one spot.

Left lane when possible so I can watch for idiots behind and to the right instead of 360. 65 to 90 depending on traffic flow and how late I am for work...

I drive top speed anytime on the street. Especially in active school zones or construction areas.
