forgot to mention that I ride in my work cloth during lunch, so cruising hands-free is perhaps necessary to avoid sweating too much :) >________________________________ > From: Dirk Bonné <dirk.bonne@xxxxxxx> >To: python@xxxxxxxxxxxxx >Sent: Saturday, June 30, 2012 1:22 PM >Subject: [python] Re: Python Stability Continued > > >On 30.06.2012 20:53, Vi Vuong wrote: >My high speed definition of 15+mph, 24+km/h, is based common speed limit for >US bike paths. It would be interesting to hear about speed limit in Europe. >> As far as I know there is no speed limit for bikes. I think I read once on the dutch mailing list that because bikes do not have to have the means of knowing their current speed, it makes no sense to dictate a maximum speed. So while cars crawl at 30kmh through a little village, a cyclist can crash through at 50kmh...

At 44mph, >70km/h, most people ride with seat belt and airbags in automobiles. On flat my normal speed is 30kmh (that is, without using myself up). The terrain slopes where I live so speed varies. 40kmh on flat on any recumbent is really going to cause a sweat ;-) > >Dirk > ============================================================ This is the Python Mailinglist //www.freelists.org/list/python Listmaster: Jurgen Mages jmages@xxxxxx To unsubscribe send an empty mail to python-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe' in the subject field. ============================================================ > >
