68.9 mph! recorded with GPS at Nabx. Somewhere between 65-75 chased by cars at Sunset beach. All on Libre hardcore xs. I did hit 64.9 in a 50 mile endura. First of 3 to finish, finished minutes ahead of 2nd place. First time riding with Graham S.

how far in distance can you drive in one direction on NABX (Ivanpah?)
i scored my 59+MPH in just over 0.7 miles/1.1 km.
but that was also the maximum length of the ideal course on the beach that day..

At nabx you can ride 2-3+miles on the longest reaches. The is the wind. It's not steady at Nabx. It's like havin someone set off bombs up wind of you. :karate:

I PREFER SUNSET BEACH USA. THATS ABOUT 9MILES LONG. wind straight off the ocean:ninja:

Yeah, funny you should say that, I hit 45mph with a 2m kite at NABX and felt like I was cruising and pushing pretty hard, Then I hit the same 45mph on the beach at Seaside and wanted more, lots lots more, Is it just getting used to the speed, or does it just feel that much safer with nice smooth winds and the ability to scrub speed off with ease on the nice forgiving sand.

Man, 45 sounds slow in this thread, gonna have to push it up past 50 for sure.
