Some of them are wrong. I was pounding on the pedals and stretching the chain and really working through the hills and trying to remember to breathe and, otherwise, having a good ride. Still, nothing like some of those speeds. So I assume there&#8217;s a GPS-out-in-the-country issue, or a dropped-signal issue or a this-app-isn&#8217;t-very-good issue. <\/p>\n<p>Anyway, on mile 17, when I wasn&#8217;t doing 49.9 miles per hour, I cruised past this place.
