The descent to Skull Valley from the top of Iron Springs Road is 12.2 miles long. (http://ridewithgps.com/trips/
The last 7 miles of the road has been completely repaved allowing the total descent to be on glass smooth surface with wide shoulders. This is a video (GoPro) of my descent (starting at 5:30 minutes into vid). Clear day. Very little wind (early).
Purposely restricted my speed to 50 mph, but could easily have exceeded that simply by not feathering the brakes. I rode a Bacchetta CA2 high racer recumbent bicycle. This descent is part of the Skull Valley Loop Challenge: (http://www.prescottbikeped.
