Sadly I don't have a computer on my Hybrid, so I'll have to load up Strava and give it a bash. My courses are all mountains so my average will be very low.

Mine cruises at about 30 with the engine on, and I pedal around 7-15 with the engine off. :-) http://cdn.twospoke.com/images/5/6/4/5/fruit-pickup-bike-1b.jpg

Went on a "Old Pharts Ride" with the Colorado Springs Cycling Club last week, I was the ONLY, Cro-mo steel frame/fork bike there, I'm 230lbs, the bike is 27lbs stock and I ride with 10lb. rear rack pack. Everyone else was on a "carbon fiber" road bike and well under 200lbs, man I was getting killed up steep hills and long grades but on one huge downhill, I went into a "full tuck" and let it fly, when I passed the group I was at 43 mph and finally started braking!! Has to be some vengence somewhere on a ride, LOL!

ha ha ha, and you could've coasted up the next hill farther then they would've also

IDK...How strong a rider are you?

Hybrids will never be as fast as road bikes, due to the use of the drops and assuming a more aerodynamic riding position with road bikes. Something whic is absent on hybrids.

That's not too mention all of the other variables already stated...

unless your hybrid is like this \/



i just finished it making it ride-able and am about to make a thread on it.

I topped out at 31 mph today

my fastest to date was 36mph even now. Downhill, no kids.

while the kids give a good push in their trailer, the additional drag slows it down.
