"Ok, I looked up highway line markings. Standard for rural roads is 10' length and 30' gap. 40' per mark. This looks close looking at the length of the bike versus line at the start. Without using a stop watch, I counted 50 in 10 seconds, at full speed. Times 6=3000 per minute x 60 = 18000 per hour x 40' = 720,000'/ 5280' = 136 mph. I suspect somebody changed a sprocket."
