Commuting

[mr self destruct]

My commute is the whole reason I learnt to ride. They decided to build a press shop on our car park two years ago and bought some land 3/4 mile away to use as our new car park. Walking to and from there more than doubled my journey time so I did my CBT and bought a 125. Then realised my non-motorway route took even longer than walking from the car park, but by then I was hooked and did my full test.   
Today, there has to be a bloody good reason for me to take my car.

I set myself a filtering limit of approx 35mph, anything over and I stay in lane. I see plenty filtering at higher speeds, but that is what I feel safe at.

What speeds are folk happy filtering at on motorways then? Personally my limit is 25mph as I have next to no experience and am still fairly unconfident, but I'm regularly passed by a guy on a Daytona 675 who rides the white line at well over 50. That seems insane to me, but it could just be me being a pussy.
