@Jerry, I'd get off road if they went down that fast. There would be bodies/ bikes flying everywhere. Most that ride downhill on those tours don't look like they touched a bike in years and riding down that mountain with all the switchbacks I see their faces and some of them have that "This is not what I expected" look and are scared to death. Not the mindset you want to have riding down that mountain with cars flying past them. It is a 36 mile ride downhill and switchbacks all the way down to around the 3,500 foot level.

I normally ride at 30-35 mph around switchbacks but I have been doing this for a while(keeping right of double yellow lines). Other than touching breaks just before sharp turns, I don't use them going down mountain until I hit the side roads near the bottom.

As for coming over here, that would be great!

When I broke my collar bone last June it was my first(so far) broken bone in my life so I can't complain about that. It did take a while for it to mend and I now have a nice bump on left side where bones healed (one on top of the other part). They say the collar bone is stronger when it heals after a break.

@Kawika Plummer. Don't the people riding downhill know you are supposed to be doing 45-50mph? When we get to Hawaii someday I'll look you up for some rides. Though it will be a few years. And of course I have to heal all my broken bones first.

@Laurie, Good for you. Keep it up! You will be at Platinum before you knowit!

Oh my goodness, I just realized I am over halfway to platinum.

Michael, that's too bad. I have not been in Myrtle for a long time. Enjoy your vacation - sounds fun!

The new bridge is beautiful, a must to check out. Bike shop and bike group are all tied together. Its a great group and if you want to see the country side its some terrific riding. Good luck. I checked out your zip code, I lived in South Central PA for about 30 years.
Hilton Head is a great biking place. Never been but I hear a lot about it.
Happy Trails!
