I haven't been over 100 probably more than a couple of times in the last 20 years. It's not just the obvious danger, but the risk of getting caught. I guess losing my license as a youngster has left a permanent mark.

Still, 101mph is surprisingly low. I've never had the urge to test the 124mph limit (not since I was about 20).
I agree. Top end around here will kill you real quick. But I love taking off from a stop light and watching EVERYTHING disappear in my mirrors.

...Then I immensely enjoy the astonished looks of drivers around me as they pull up next to me; at the next stoplight.

Rinse. Repeat.

My past Carpenter Racing 240hp enhanced Triumph Rocket 3 was reaaaaaaly good for that
