Your post reminds me of when an alcoholic says: "I can handle it... I know what I'm doing.... I know my limits..."

I speed on the highway to make my way through traffic, and I speed through corners under good conditions to enjoy motorcycling.
I do not speed on roads I do not know. I do not speed in sub-ideal conditions, and I do not speed when following riders I do not trust. I have sped in all of those conditions, and each time I have ended up learning a lesson, whether by kissing the dirt or have a pucker moment. Not worth the risk.
