Nope--Does Tulsa have hills like that?I live in NW Arkansas, so there are some real hills--but I avoid most of them.

I have ridden on Old Stage Rd/Lefthand Canyon and several others which lead you into the foothills. Foothills in Colorado mean real mountains. It is easily possible to hit 45 mph on you bike on this roadway and I am sure the speed limit is probably 45 or 50 mph. And on this roadway, small children and/or grandma wouldn't be crossing the road. It is a canyon road with a river and sheer rock walls on it. There are a few driveways leading from it.
Just the other day, I hit 42 mph on a hill in Wisconsin. The speed limit is 45 at this part of the roadway. I guess it is how much risk you are willing to take.
This isn't the first time a bicyclist in the Boulder area has hit a bear. I am just glad everyone is alright.
