As I was commuting to work and back I began to wonder if I should be in a lower gear, running the rpm's up a bit more at city street speed limits of 25 and 35 mph. Currently, 2000 rpm seems to give me a feel for the speed limit without watching the speedometer. That means mostly 3rd gear in town. What do you like to do, higher gear lower rpm or keep her winding out a bit?
