It is the only hill I encounter in 16+ miles, and is only a couple blocks long, but it is annoying because I have to make a left once I get to the top and it flattens out, but bunches of traffic catches up (it is a four lane highway), so I sometimes am powerless to keep ahead of traffic and have to wait for the bunches of cars to pass me in the left lane so I can maneuver over to the left.

Yeah that is why I stopped looking at my Chinese speedo lol At 53-55 mph (GPS) the Chino was reading 60-65 mph. At my top speed run of 65 mph (GPS) it was well past 70 on the Chino and had me laughing the whole time. With no head wind and on a flat she will run 60-65 mph (GPS) accurate. My whole plan is working just need to tweak her a little more for those uphill into the wind days lol. I need to adjust the torque band up 1000 rpm but I will figure it out.

Ride on.....
p.s. My cousins scooter was running 53 mph (GPS) while showing 60 mph on the Chino also.
