No pic but got a warning from the police for riding 57km/he in a 50. They were set up for cars at the bottom of a long hill. The cars in front of me started braking as they saw the car.

I've done 75k on the hill before. Good thing there was traffic or I would have likely gotten more than the lights going on and a cyclist slow down on the bullhorn.
