Wow!! That is crazy given the sightlines and apparent size of the town. I kind of lucked into that one since there weren't many good options left. Someone else can go next.

50? Looks like Ontario, so it would not surprise me if it is.

Is it 40 then? If it is, then that is just plain painful.

80 km/h?

That is correct! This is Hunt Club Road in Nepean, Ottawa. A painted unprotected bicycle lane on an 80 km/h road. Nice.

Here's proof:

Nice! Bike lane aside - and at least it has a double-line, unlike most bike lanes in the US - 80 km/h seems reasonable enough there so I'm glad that turned out to be correct instead of 40!

Next up, in mph:

30 mph, if it is indeed in mph. (50 km/h if not)

Sorry, yes it is in mph (always forget to specify!) but it is not 30 mph.

Wow I would have guessed 40 before 80. It also seems crazy that the speed limit after the Macdonald-Cartier bridge goes down to 30 whereas this road with on-road bike lane and intersections is 80. I don't get you Ottawa. :-D

For webny99's, I'll try 25 mph.

You are on a roll with my challenges, as 25 mph is correct! This is on Block Island, RI, just a little ways down from this sign: https://goo.gl/maps/6uzk1SC1SX4KfGAL8

Sweet, I was torn between 25 and 40. It's cool that you found a decent-sized island in the US that has "homemade" street view.

Next one is in km/h, ending in zero.

Darn, you got it first try! It looks more like a 70 to me, but for some reason it's 50 (GSV link).

I think Hunt Club Road was always intended as a road that leaned more expressway-like, which can be seen by the road design + speed limit. As to why they added a painted bike lane there, no idea.

Next up, in mph (as given by the advisory speed):

doorknob60

Is this a 55 MPH default situation?
