I have hit slightly under 60 mph on a downhill run on MA 23, just outside Great Barrington. I was ~24 at the time. After noting the speed on my Cateye, I then low level freaked out on how to slow down without popping the tubes. I got out of the drops and made myself big and caught some drag.
More recently, there was a hill on Day 2 of the Houston-Austin MS150 on FM 153 east of Buescher State Park. 45+ was no problem. That is far more reasonable....
