    That race in Key West still sticks in my mind as a great ride overall. Its was as good as it gets for having fun until it wasn't.

    The point I was making that should not be over looked is I got really busted up at 60 mph. Stress increase exponentially at every 10 miles an hour increase in speed.

    A good example of stress and pressure is expressed in an old fashion speedometer. It's a simple pressure gauge. 70 mph is 70 lbs of pressure. 100 mph is 140 lbs in round numbers.
