This is what a Speedplay pedal attached to a Shimano Ultegra crank looks like after a 45 mile ride around the hills of Palos Verdes, on an incredibly warm sunny day in Hotel California. PV Drive North downhill was especially fast today, with very little headwind; maximum speed was 36.2 mph. Lots of traffic on the bike paths, with the first really summer-like day in quite a while.
