You have fun. I always prefered my speed in a black and white Mustang or Camero (or '69 Dodge 440 magnum). Try 150+ on I-5 if you want to get your juices flowing...
My brother was arrested off campus at UCLA for doing 90 down a hill on a now collectable italian bike. My only comment is packmules , hikers ( and mountain lions- score 1 lions 0 bikers in socal) have been known to use the same trails mountain bikers like to careen on.

Was that 90 mph or 90 Kph (56 mph)?
The fastest I've ever been on bicycle is 57 mph descending Mt Olympus. Anything over 60 mph is probably a bit of an exaggeration as even Tour de France riders decending from Alpine Mountains rarely descend faster than this.
