Pins are for USCF racers only. International UCI races use stick-on numbers that are really big stickers (so they aren't really that drag-inducing). The only time UCI racers use pins is when they want to reuse numbers (sometimes they want to take a number or two home from the Tour for memory's sake).
No, not kmh (obviously). I've done over 70 (mph... obviously) going down a hill.
You actually don't need a spoiler for going those speeds - the faster you go on a bicycle, the more stable it gets, even to the point where it gets hard to turn at speeds of 60-70mph. Hey... motorcycle racers don't use spoilers, and they can go twice as fast.
I rather thought it was the third Matrix movie when the people in the train were helping him... the scene is nearly identical, save the facts that the hands holding the unconcious Spiderman up were flesh instead of mechanical and the fact that he was unconcious rather than dead.
