Hey, I'll get mine in soon.  Just remembered yesterday on my way home and
tried a couple of preliminaries without a way to time them.  With my 5speed
and my little high winder inline four, it will be interesting as thirty to
fifty is kinda "in-between".  I can lug it up in 4th gear..or I could rev it
through in 3rd gear, but I imagine my better time will come with a shift
during the run.  Seems like around 7 seconds, counting in my best "One one
thousand, two one thousand, three one..." sailboat cadence..
