On those 12 and 15 percent downhill grades slow down and use lower gears. Going the speed limit will get you in trouble. We had to stop half way down to cool the brakes.
Good rule of thumb is use a gear that holds your speed without using the brakes...
That's right... it is no where near the "speed limit" on a 15% grade :)
